Switzerland



Gutt morgen (Good morning)

We have been in Switzerland. Switzerland has many high mountains and lots of lakes. It is very beautiful (and very cold). They also have gorgeous houses. I'd love to live in one of these.


A lot of people here speak German (so my German is getting a little better, but I still need to practise).

The best things we have done in Switzerland have been to go up some mountains. We went on a cable car to get up to the top of Schilthorn mountain. It went quite fast and very high.




Up the top of the mountain it was so cold that there was snow. It was fantastic. Matthew and I had a snowball fight



and then we made a snowman.



Matthew also made Kev a little house.


We also went inside a mountain where the water from some of the mountains goes when the snow melts. The water coming down from the mountain makes a waterfall, but this mountain had waterfalls inside the mountain. Pretty amazing.



Another mountain that we went up had an ice cave. We walked through tunnels in the ice cave.


Someone had even carved a dog out of the ice. It was as cold as your freezer, so the dog didn't melt. We didn't stay in there to long,  it was too cold.


Now we're driving through the tunnels and roads that they have made through the mountains to go to Italy.



Auf wiedersehen/Good Bye
