We started by taking a lift up the mountains on the opposite side of the valley from Jungfrau. We then 'hiked' (our word for slightly strenuous walking along a paved path) to the town of Murren, about 1.5 hours away. The following is a picture from our walk.
We then at lunch in Murren.
And then continued on our fantastic walk. Note: in the picture below, it looks like I'm standing on the edge of a cliff. As I explained in the previous post, I would've been freaking out if that were the edge. Really, it was more of a gentle slope than a cliff, thus, I wasn't scared
We know that Swiss cheese comes from Swiss milk, which comes from Swiss cows. Here's the source of your cheese. Dont' they look so happy?
After our hike around Murren, we took the lift back down and walked back to our hotel. This was about an hour and a half walk. The best way to describe the valley is by saying that it's sort of reminds me of Yosemite valley (for those of you that have been there). The picture is us relaxing on the balcony after a long hike.
Soon, I (Eric) will sort through pictures of the hike and post some of them on my Google site so everyone can flip through them without my running commentary. :)
