Today we left at 8:18 t ocatch the 8:18 train. Almost was run over by a bus. Went to Murten to buy picnic food and quickly tour the town on the way to the boat. Followed school kids through the spinklers. Boat crew did not quite konw what to do with us but they let us on anyway. Nice 4 hour ride through the canal lake and river. Did not see much scenery. Talked to much. Had nice lunch on the boat. Walked through Beil. Not a tourist destination. Caught train back. LEft off youngsters at Nuechatel so they could self tour. Came back and rested. Paula was snooping in the basement and got a heart attack when she thought a life sized statue of Joseph was attacking her. Sydney and Erika made stir fry. It was very good. Did laundry and packed for leaving the manor tomorrow. Catching the early train to go on to Preda Kulm and Luzern and then Preda Kulm.

Sunrise was pretty. The sun come up very close to where the sun set. Had a great breakfast of yogurt and granola and fruit.	Sunrise from the terrace
Got to the train station early. It was just around the corner. We were early. As we waited we were almiost run over by a bus. it was turning around and needed the entire width of the roadway. We moved before we got pushed onto the tracks. Caught the train and went exploring the old town of Murten before we caught the 10 oclock boat.
