I'm still in Thun and can see the church dominating the hill with the castle to the left.
Making my way up to Thun castle (12th century) I notice something. Back in medieval times it was a big deal to be top dog. I've been to many, many towns where the church dominates the heights but in this case the castle has the upper hand (upper land).
Wow, looking up the steep castle wall I wonder if Spiderman could scale it.
Inside the castle courtyard.
This is the path from the castle to the church--which goes DOWN to the church.
Church on the hill.
View of the castle from the church.
View from church looking down to the Aare river.
Workers are setting up some kind of fountain display in the middle of the river. I bet after dark it'll be colorful.
This is the second of two covered bridges over the Aare river
This surfer is holding onto to a rope attached to the bridge.
