Randy, do you mean you're arriving in Lausanne on the 19th? (since you are doing an overnight train from Paris). I'm also assuming you're arriving in Paris from Houston?

I don't like either itinerary, because both will be derailed by not accounting for jet lag. You're going to be wiped out by the time you reach the Berner Oberland.
