The morning started off like any other morning, a little upsetting that this was the start of our last day with our new friends. However we still had an entire day with them, today was the day that we were to hike Elsigen. Our group opted for the 2 hour low road route to the base of the mountain, gondola up to the Alp where we ate lunch and some went for a swim in a man made lake, it was a very hot day! When lunch ended 9 people from our group continued on to the...

Today was one of our more laid back days, we took a funicular train up the mountian to the very top. The train was so small and crowded it was ridiculous. Everyone was stepping on each others feet and invaiding their personal space (i'm not too sure about everyone else's car but for each one of mine that's how it was). We had to take two of these trains to get up the mountian but once we got up the view was spectacular. We could see loads of mountians, valleys an...

Actually we saw a few so it was a very good day. :P Today we took a long hike to a beautiful gorge that we abseiled down. It was a samll drop to a ledge that we walked across to another place where we abseiled down a longer drop. The bottom was realy nice so expect many pictures when we get home. Some of us got to eat some alpine clovers or sour grass as we call it. Reggie got hit on by one of our helpers for abseling and got his number. Apparently swiss men hav...

It has been so much fun the last few days and today was no exception, I honestly think this has been the most fun day so far. Today was our free day, it started with our group walking down the hill from our chalet to the bus. But within the first 10 minutes of our day Allison and Kristal were already providing first-aid to me after I fell on both my knees and cut them open, but I'm okay! We got to the bottom of the hill and got on the bus, it was about an hour t...

So real meat at McDonalds? Apparently only in Switzerland. OH and get this: Toblerone McFlurry and donuts. We went to Interlaken today, which is about an hour bus ride away from the chalet. When we got there we had a half hour to explore the town while the other girls watched the chocolate show. Swiss people are crazy drivers and Interlaken was crowded with tourists leaning a little too far into the road. After a small exploration of the town we saw the chocolat...
