Switzerland
Well after leaving the awesome beauty of Austria i didnt think i could be excited much more. Then came Switzerland, and as Mike has told me, every place i go i seem to think is more beautiful than the last. This time is know different. We got informed it could be quite hard to get through the border so be ready for a long wait. Well 20mins later we were through, Matt (our tour manager) was very impressed. No problems. So off to Lauterbrunnen. And WOW!!! This camp site sits under sheer cliffs that rise up into snow covered mountains. It is fantastic. The facilities are good too. (Always a bonus, no squat toilets). They had a theme party for us the first night, the 80's, so yes i would have really enjoyed this but unfortunately i was sick and went to bed early. Got up the next morning to alot of very sick people. ha ha ha. Caught the train in the morning up to the top of Jungfrau, being so high up made me feel that much more sick. But there was one thing i wasnt going to miss out on. The husky ride, yep i did it. Went for a sledge ride being pulled by the husky dogs, and i loved it. And im so glad i did it. After that however, i proceed to get back on the train and leave the highest point there and come back down to camp and go to sleep. Unfortunate i know, but you cant help these things. After being so cold i am looking forward to meeting up with mike in cairns and enjoying the warmer weather.
