Day 14: From Freiburg to Switzerland (Innertkirchen)

The night wasn't the most pleasant one since I got a bit sick from the trip. However I had wasted so much time that I had no time to stick around. My original plan was to visit Bern but since I didn't know anyone in the area I decided to do a compromise: instead of visiting something new, I would go through Grimsel, Furka, Gotthard and Susten like I did during the last year. This would take me closer to Vorarlberg which is of course a must place to visit... I hope this year the weather would be in my side!

After making a hazy estimation how far I would manage to drive, I did some googling and made a call (actually Paola did, thank you for that!) to a hotel close to Interlaken and reserved a room for the night. Then it was all about hitting the road again!

During this ride I already started to see places for which I made the trip: curvy roads and quick changes in elevation. I also had to stop twice because of rain, first time just outskirts of Freiburg and in a place called Sankt Blasien (stop #2).

Damn rain...

Lungerersee during a late late evening

I arrived the place a bit late (after 10 pm), cold as hell again but really happy since especially the drive between Luzern and Innertkirchen was really really awesome (curvy roads, tunnels and great views). After a successful check-in (they even understood my crappy German!) I took a warm shower and rushed downstairs to get something to eat and drink. After long ride, food and a beer I didn't need much fall asleep :)





Looking good already! ;)
