Plan a whole day of public transport with time spent at each stop: the train there, the hours somewhere, the connection on, and the way home — each leg timed from when the previous stay actually ends. This is Spick Me's day-out planner; no plain journey planner answers this in one call. Use it for "a day trip from Bern to Grindelwald with four hours hiking, then dinner in Interlaken", "visit Thun, Spiez and Interlaken today", or an evening out and back. For a single A-to-B trip, use plan_journey. Inputs: start is A station or stop name ("Zürich HB", "Bern", "Lausanne, Flon"), an address ("Bahnhofstrasse 1, Winterthur"), a named place ("ETH Zürich", "Kunsthaus"), a coordinate as "geo:47.3769,8.5417", or a place_id returned by find_place ("stop:8503000"). Names are read the way a rider types them; an ambiguous name returns candidates instead of a guess. stops is the list of places in order (1–12), each with stay_minutes (default 120; 0 means pass through without stopping) or leave_at ("HH:MM", move on at that time — a night away works: the next such time), and an optional note. end defaults to start, which makes it a round trip. departure is when the day starts: Swiss local time in ISO 8601, e.g. "2026-09-26T08:00"; an explicit offset or Z is converted. A bare "08:00" means today (tomorrow if it has long passed). Omit for now. Each leg comes with a picture_url that opens an image of that connection. Example: {"start": "Bern", "stops": [{"place": "Grindelwald", "stay_minutes": 240, "note": "hike"}, {"place": "Interlaken Ost", "stay_minutes": 90, "note": "dinner"}], "departure": "2026-09-26T08:00"}
