Sandy & Jérémie (Basel - 09/08)

The river "Rhein" (Basel - 09/08)

Three days of non-stopping rain as-well in Basel! The boat traffic got stopped on several parts of the river.

Arriving in Basel (Riehen / Basel - 09/08)

After just 2 hours driving we arrived in Basel. We very happy that the distance between Bern and Basel is not soo long because it was still raining. First of all we had to say "Hello" to the two little cats of my sister.

Drying clothes... (Bern - 09/09)

The heavy rain on our tour to Bern made the water level of the rivers go up. We arrived around 6pm in our hotel which was situated at the exposition area outside of Bern. All wet and cold, we were very happy to be arrived! We were too wet to still visit the city center of Bern under the rain :-(. At around 9:45 pm we heard the sirenes of Bern. The receptionist explained that they do this, to wake up the people who live close to the river "Aare". The river level was too high and for security reasons the people had to leave their houses. During the night it kept raining!
