Cool Cows

We went to a cool place called Gruyere. Pretty cool buildings and cobblestone streets with little shops and restaurants. We ate cheese fondue like stuff and fresh raspberries with double cream. YUM!

Most of the windows have windowboxes with pretty flowers. Even this time of year, they look so nice.
There are so many ancient buildings with beautiful outlooks. The pictures looks weird because the weather has been misty... so not too clear.
On the way to Gruyere, we ran into this parade. In the spring, the cows are herded up on the mountain. In the fall, they are rounded up and come down the mountain. The best cows have the biggest bells and they are all dolled up with flowers and they each have a name tag. They are rounded up by the local people who the cows belong too. Pretty cool cows!
