Nov 7 - Bern, Switzerland

After breakfast I left for Bern. Cycling through meadows and forests reminded me of the days in Sweden. I bought a scout shirt at the materials supply and went to the scout office. The Federal commissioner wasn't in but I sat in the office and read the newspaper. Went to the bear pits before leaving. On the return trip I badly bent the front wheel when I ran into a curb. Went to Dr. Statter's. Read the War of the Worlds and the newspaper. Had dinner of goulash and wine. I showed them my collectibles, which includes patches, and Indian beaded rosettas from Oklahoma. Dr. and I walked around town, for his health, not mine. Cycled home. Got to bed at midnight.
