Day 4 Brienz
Everybody knows Mom collects nativity sets. Some of the most famous and highly artistic nativity sets in Switzerland are made in the little town of Brienz nestled in the Alps (see the mountains in the background).
The company is called Huggler. Here Mom can't wait to see the nativity sets in their showroom.
Brienz is filled with woodcarvers working in walnut.
I've never seen lakes the color of these -- a beautiful aquamarine (blue-green) in color. Julie and I enjoy the scenery of Brienz after completing our purchase of the nativity set. We were excited to find something free in Switzerland -- the beauty.
