Entry:
Spent most of the day on the train. Got to Bern after dark. Walking to the Hostel passed several groups and individuals shooting up or preparing drugs. Very strange, since it was just in the middle of the street or stairs in down town. Can't say I'm all that impressed with Bern. The hostel was nice, and reasonable (compared to everything else anyway).
