We have spent the last two days in Interlaken, Switzerland. The first day we just explored down and found the casino. My first try at blackjack proved the be a success and I walked away with 35 CHF/Swiss Franks. Yesterday we took a cog train to the top of Europe, the Jungfrau Mountain 13638ft. The fast altitude increase gave me a bit of a headache so it was a good excuse to eat some chocolate which is supposed to help with altitude sickness. At the top they have created an ice palace that you can walk through with lots of ice sculptures and fun little tunnels to go through. Went and played in the snow. It was such a difference than the sand we were playing in just days before. They have year round skiing/snowboarding at the top but after looking at it, it was a pretty lame bunny slope.
On our way back down we had to stop and switch trains at a little town and there were a bunch of goats just chilling in the middle of town. Everybody got out and took pictures. There was this one funny little goat who was way behind the rest of the pak and as it was crossing the train tracks it just stopped to take a leak. Made for a great photo op.
Off to Bern today and then up to Amsterdam.
