A rainy weekend in Switzerland could not dampen our spirit. we continued our run through the picturesque countryside. It is quite necessary to organise our Vans from time to time...

Swiss people build interesting houses...

Gunthita takes it easy...

Bahru was one of our heroes running in the rain...

Our today's goal: the three-country corner in Basel.

Here Switzerland, Germany and France meet in the middle of the river. This landmark is also a member of the worldwide "Sri Chinmoy Peace Blossoms Project" - a project to inspire people for Peace and Harmony.
