Jokes, Jokes, I Make Jokes

So, I got my bag and everything was in it. I just thought I would have a little fun. I know that most of you didn't even read the last couple of posts because they are too long, but I enjoyed writing them.

Anyway, so the weather is really disgusting in Switzerland and we are finally heading to Gimmelwald via Lauterbrunnen.

Isn't it lovely?





So, maybe it's not, but at first it's still awesome just knowing that you are in the heart of the Swiss Alps. Emphasis on "at first." So, we get to Lauterbrunnen to catch a connecting train to Gimmelwald. Lauterbrunnen is a nice little town in the valley of the Alps. They have great waterfalls and as my wife can attest, I love waterfalls. Here is a shot of the most famous one:

Staubach Falls
It was also here, in Lauterbrunnen, that we caught our first view of the snow-capped Alps through the rain and clouds that seemed to smother everything beautiful about the area.


From here, we take a train and gondola lift to Gimmelwald village of the famous Hotel Mittaghorn on Mount Mittaghorn directly across form Jungfrau.
