Quintessential Switzerland



Allison and I got up early Saturday morning and took a train to the Swiss Alps. As you would imagine, they were extremely beautiful and awe-inspiring.

We first went to Interlaken - a city in between two beautiful, glacier-fed lakes. From there we took a train, bus, and gondola up to Gimmelwald - a tiny farming village of only 130 people on the side of a mountain.

The weather was perfect and we spent the afternoon hiking around the village and up into the mountains. We got to see the highest point in Europe and learned how to pronounce Jungfraujoch. It was beautiful - but I think I already said that.

Yep, you can see more photos on our Flickr.
