Say "cheese"

I am here in Bern Switzerland again for work. Staying at a nice hotel in the old downtown a block from the river. Wonderful cobblestone streets, great food, and of course cheese. The whole group took a 40 minute bus ride to the Emmental region to get our fill of cheese. This included hand making Emmental cheese (swiss cheese) over a wood-burning fire in a building built in 1742. The cheese will age for 4-6 months and then be shipped to our offices to enjoy this summer. Since we had not had enough cheese we went to a traditional fondue restaurant and enjoyed, more cheese, a meal of only bread and hot, melted cheese. Bread and cheese, that's it... and wine.
The curds become a round.
Andrew does fondue.
