Switzerland - Berne - 17.8.1957

Hotel Bristol, Berne. Switzerland - 17.8.1957

Dear Pennie,

     Hope you like this beautiful cow.  We always wonder how they manage to carry such huge bells.  I think this particular sort is their Sunday best, they have smaller ones for everyday use.

      Lots of love, Nan


Hotel Bristol, Berne. Switzerland - 17.8.1957

Dear Merry,

     These are the baby bears who were too young for us to see when we were here last time.  We are paying them a visit tomorrow, I hope.  Wouldn't they make darling pets?  I hope Minder Bear* likes them.

     Love Nan
* 'Minder Bear' was Meredith's teddy bear who looked after when she was in Hospital at 3 years of age.

 Dear Bud, (our Mum)

     Doesn't this installment of 'The Adventures of the Hat' just say you!  You can't say I don't try hard to keep you amused.  Can't help wondering if anything is wrong, you've spoilt me with being such a regular correspondent.  We have just been back in London two ( ???? )   
Had a wonderful few weeks.  I might state that the dirty looking stuff we are sitting on is all part of the Glacier, but constant walking upon has made it that colour.  Our foot stools are chunks of ice.  It's so slippery that the gent who isn't a bear has to help his clients up .  Susy got a good report from school.  ( ???? )

    Love, Nan
