b'The BEA is open! This annual traditional Swiss fair is a must-see for anyone living in or around Bern and it\'s open until May 8 this year. From donkey displays to fairground rides and the chance to sample local beers and a staggering range of cheese, there is so much to see for children and adults.

We recorded while out on a day trip in Switzerland, so there\'s not one, but two recommendations of places to visit in this episode. One of them is an insider tip about a slightly hidden place.
