Interlaken- Day 3

This is a picture of me really excited to arrive in Interlaken, Switzerland.

It is so gorgeous here with the natural scenery, not to mention all the quaint swiss chalets and cows with ringing bells. Yesterday, we went back to the same area. We took mountain bikes on the cable car up to Gimmelwald and biked uphill to Murren where we had sausage and rotsi (hash browns) as we overlooked the snow covered mountains that we were directly across from. We then mountain biked down. Mountain biking down the swiss alps is hard! We were on bikes 70% and walking down steep stairs 30%. I feel off maybe 10 times and have bruises, but felt like a little kid, it was a blast, I was so proud that we made it down.


It just keeps getting better here. Today, I went hangliding over the mountains and turquiose lakes. It was quite exhilerating, but not scary. I loved swooping through the air like a bird. Jon chose the most extreme option offered here for adventures- skydiving. He was awesome and loved the experience, although complains it was a little cloudy.
