Spring Holiday: Interlaken, Switzerland

Assalamualaikum 


Interlaken means 'between the lakes', the town center was located at Bodeli between the gorgeous Lake Thun and Lake Brienz. Hence the name. And at the town centre there is Aar Rver which flows through both Thun and Brienz Lake .Very idyllic and strategic place with a stunning panoramic view as well as fantastic outdoor activities such as paragliding. Extravagant indeed! ;)

Paragliding at Interlaken
Harderbahn is still close lagi, so tak dapat naik HarderKulm to see the meeting point of Lake Thun and Brienze..so mak sabar je la...:P
nak tengok ala2 mcm dlm gmbr ni la tapi tade rezeki..(Interlaken. Pic courtesy and credit to Google ;))

Interlaken is also a getaway to some of the top attractions such as Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen, Kandersteg and Jungfraujoch or Top of Europe. Just to name a few. The town center is not too big  though but it still has quite numbers of designer shops. Hmm drooling? (i just shopped their souvenirs only..;P)


Butik Jam berjenama buatan Swiss..ku window shopping je la jawabnya. :P

After quite some time of surveying some of the places to stay, we tumbled upon Manor Farm Caravan Park, Interlaken. The reviews and photos at TripAdvisor website were so overwhelming, hoho  we straightly fell in love and interested to stay there. With the rate of 47pounds only per night, it's a really good bargain! So without delay, hubby quickly booked a mobile home type caravan for 5D4N as early in last January..


ni la dianya our mobile home caravan
The interior. From above L-R: master bedroom, (the other two rooms not in the pic, both have two single beds), pic of fridge and microwave, the bathroom ensuit with the master bedroom. The pics below L-R were the dining area (left) where the living area (right but tak nmpk la plak) and lastly the kitchen

 The mobile home has total three bedrooms, equipped with heater, a fully-utility kitchen and a toilet separate with a bathroom which en suit to the master bedroom, which we thought so worth it the money though there was no tv. ;P But that's not a problem since we already brought laptop for the kids's entertainment. Credit to hubby who had downloaded and saved movies such as Smurfs, Pussy and Boots and Kung Fu Panda 2. Thus, no complaints from them! Everyone's happy. Yay!


our lil helper yg pantang nampak mop..:)
my unwell baby..:'(
If you still remember in my previous post, my lil Iris was sick. We assumed that she was Lactose intolerant..due to consumed the skimmed milk that hubby mistakenly bought at Carrefour  previously. So that;s the disadvantage when we didn't understand French..:P 

Anyway, what we did was we gave her some 'çarbon' that diluted in her drink ( ubat diarrhea)..so it 'flushed out' the milk from her stomach..luckily we brought it along..Poor Iris.. menu dia pon toast aje, kesian dia ok! but luckily it was just for two days...on the third day she was already recovered. Alhamdulillah..bila dah sihat terus bawak gi Plagground nearby. :)
Manor Park Playground

happy to see the smile on their face! ^^
Overall, we were satisfied with the mobile home. We got the location that we had requested during booking, near the playground but not close the road. So every night our sleep was peaceful and every morning woke up to see the gorgeous Swiss Alps in front of our eyes just from our bedroom's window was priceless! Alhamdulillah...and appreciated towards the service by eurocamp's staffs. They were so kind and helpful..and always smiling. Seemed very passionate with their job, they are so lucky to work at the most beautiful country on earth. Me, envy! hehe.

Happy Us at the living area in our mobile home before we checked-out :)


Till the next post,, Wassalam.

Hehe serius superb! ;) tp tu la aritu pegi most of the time foggy, susah nak nmpk Swiss Alps tu everyday. Time sunny je baru clear nmpk. ;) mobile home tu pon superb. Clean and complete! Staff eurocamp.co.uk pon very nice and helpful..ktrg running out best duringnour 5d4n but diorang dtg rite away n tukar tong gas baru hihi masak byk kan so gas pon cpt habis ;p tp tade kene caj lebih pon! ;) so highly recommend yg under eurocamp.co.uk, caravan under company lain tak berani nk rekemen :D
