For us Biologists, day 4 was a fun day with not much work and lots of free time. The first place we went to was a working cheese factory/museum. Although we did have to fill out some questions while walking around the factory, it was mostly fun. We got to see how they made all of the dairy into cheese! And guess who was talking on our audio guide...a cow!
The cheese factory
That's quite a lot of Gruyere cheese...
After the cheese factory we went into the mountain top village of Gruyere. It was a tiny walled city with a castle at one end. We got about 45 minutes to wander around the town meaning that we didn't have the time to go into the castle, but we still walked around the edge of it for awhile, getting a very nice view of Montreux and the surrounding mountains.
