Switzerland 3

Another day of swiss glory! After 2 days of intense hiking, we wanted to find a place with a great view and do some relaxing. We first went to see one of the famous waterfalls in the area. Pretty sweet!


Johnny and I within shot of the spray.


After the waterfall we took a gondola and a train to a petite little swiss town called Muren. The swiss are masters of the ridiculous. This little town was literally set up on the side of a mountain in the alps. It was incredible. Check out the view of the 3 peaks. Awesome!


After some time in Murren we were in a search for a sweet spot to set up our slackline with the mountains in the background. After some failed attempts, we made a spur of the moment decision to get off the train at a random spot. The problem is that we had left our slackline in someone else's bag, and they were on the train back home with the rest of the group! We were pretty discouraged, and after a little while we decided to explore the area. Literally 30 seconds later we found a restaurant with a slackline in their front lawn. It was unbelievable. Needless to say we had some good fun.




We got a little swiss crazy ourselves!





Overall Switzerland has been amazing. This is truly the most beautiful place that I have ever been. Even now after a week I am still blown away that I am even here. This has definitely the break from school we needed. I have just started my next class on the european reformations. Its gonna be pretty interesting! We are off to Geneva, Zurich and then Wittenburg. Stay tuned!
