Biel

Yesterday we went to the Town of Biel. They were having their Old Town Fest, so we decided to go with some friend's to have a look. It's a quaint little town with some new but mostly old structures.
When you first enter the Alt-Stat your greeted by this beautiful Fountain. 
Next comes a booth with the "Traditional Cow Bell" that of course is selling local cheese: which we just had to purchase...so delicious"!
 And here in Switzerland they have the Cow Bounce!


They had all the regular booths...jewelery, toys, clothes, table linens/toppers and the Gummy Booth along with chocolate covered fruit. I took two pictures just for the boy's who used to eat these thing's all the time and still do when they can find some good enough!
After three or four hours of walking around and grabbing a bite for lunch, we came back home for a "rest" before meeting-up with friend's for dinner. It was a beautiful day and we managed to dodge the rain. While we were eating dinner I got a call from #2 "Chris", he and Marissa had the grandchildren in their car and were on their way to the Jelly Belly Factory Tour; they just called to say hello!! Tomorrows post will be a story along with pictures of their adventure.
