Ballenberg Ost

After our brief stop at Ballenberg last year, we decided to return this past weekend to explore the Ost side of the museum.

Someone (sadly, me) forgot to bring the camera during this outing so you'll just have to picture this in your head.

It was a beautiful day to walk around and explore the old buildings of Switzerland. We saw a man making chocolate, a man making pottery, an old smithy, a woman making cheese, a man making soup, cows, chickens, pigs, a woman making textile crafts, and a working sawmill.

Surrounding us were spectacular views of a lake and the Alps.

Gor. geous.

We had lunch on the terrace of a restaurant overlooking a playground. And then Marion enjoyed a carousel ride before we continued our stroll through the park in the fantastic spring weather.

It was awesome. If you live near there, go. soon. But not this weekend, because it is supposed to rain.

We will be back. And, hopefully, this time I will have my camera!
