3 nights in the Swiss Alps

Mel and I made a quick trip to Switzerland via bus from Nice. After Cinque Terre we stayed the night in Nice, France before making our way to Lauterbrunnen in the south west of Switzerland.

We arrived late on a Thursday night and fell asleep after playing a few rounds of cards with our Kiwi roommates. The next morning we woke up to a beautiful view of the Swiss Alps. Our campsite was in a valley, between two mountains and adjacent a waterfall.

It was a great change from the hot weather and at times eccentric Italians; we found the Swiss to be much more polite and conservative! Mel and I got the chance to go hiking, paragliding, to visit a waterfall (Trummelbach Falls) and of course buy Swiss Army Knifes!
