Nov 6 - Thun, Switzerland

Had breakfast in the hotel cafe and left Interlaken. It was a clear day. As I turned a corner I saw before me miles away the Frutigen mountains blazing in the early morning sunlight. I cycled along the Thuner See for 22 km, arriving in Thun at 11 am. Went to the address I had. Cleaned the bike and went downtown.

Today's Herald Tribune doesn't have the results [of the election]. Read and wrote until dark. At 6:40 the Air Force Radio News service carried Nixon's acceptance speech. Went over to Dr. Statter's at 7 pm. Read until he arrived, had dinner, then went to a movie. Took a short walk afterward. Went home for tea.

Mileage: Interlaken to Thun 22 km
Expenses: Newspaper .25
Gloves 7.00
