7/22 A beautiful lake and a town that smells like feet cheese We didn't have that far to drive so our wake up call was at 6:45. It's funny how I think of that time as not being that early but then I think about how I am on summer break and normally wouldn't be up until about 10. That's weird. Our first stop was going to be in Interlaken. I was very excited to go there because I had heard such good things about it. We only had 90 mins. there which was a bummer b...

7/21 So many lakes, so little time Our wake up call wasn't until 7:30. We didn't have very far to travel today. I got dressed, put out my luggage and went for breakfast. We left at about 8:45. The day was looking to be pretty clear (for once!) but it only took us driving about 30 mins. to hit rain. We got into Lucerne about an hour and a half after we left. It was raining, of course. Our first stop was to a giant lion statue dedicated to Swiss soldiers who ...

7/18 Is it ever going to stop raining? Oh well. I'm at Sleeping Beauty's castle! Getting up early sucks, especially when you have to have your bags ready and out the door by 6:30. We had one of our long driving days ahead so we had to get on the road asap. Neha went to her parent's room right after the wake up call to get dressed. I got my luggage out quickly and got dressed. The look of the ominous clouds told me that it was probably going to be another cold a...

7/9 Zurich: The San Francisco of Switzerland, minus the homeless and pee smell We didn't leave the hotel until about 9:30 that morning. We had bought food for breakfast the day before so we didn't have to eat at the hotel buffet (28 euro!) Mom had found a walking tour route on her map that would take us throughout the city. We had to take the tram into town. We got off and started our walk. A lot of window shopping stops later and 1 bratwurst stop, we found a f...

7/8 2 cities that start with Z in 1 day We decided to meet down in the lobby around 9:00 for breakfast and then head out into town. We snagged a few more snacks from the breakfast buffet because we knew we would have another long travel day and might not have a lot of time to buy any snacks later. Plus, the cheese wedges were really good. We all headed into town to get some sandwiches and drinks for the train ride. We got back to the hotel, checked out, and the...
