[[L2628]] would have been a better...

Luzern would have been a better and cheaper base camp. I also do travel
only via public transport, and once spent a week with a rail pass in
Switzerland with base in Luzern.

We did day trips as far as e.g. the Jungfrau (Luzern-Interlaken-Jungfrau
by train, return with a stretch by ship on Brinz lake), Brig (via Furka,
return via Lotschberg), Bern and Fribourg, Schaffhausen and Konstanz,
Disentis and Chur, Geneva and Lausanne (return by ship ... which was
blocked by sand ... that time we were very late and found the hotel
locked). Longer reports available somewhere in the NG archives.
