Willkommen in der Schweiz (Welcome to Switzerland!)
Alpine Afternoon Traffic Jam
Upon our arrival in the Swiss Alps, we came across a herd of cattle making their way up the main thoroughfare. Apparently we had come during the time when they stroll over to greener pastures. Since this was the only road in town, we waited for them to pass by before making our way to our Alpine Chalet. Once in our room, the views were really nice. We had a room facing the valley. Our hotel was nestled in between two mountainous walls, dotted with little chalets like the one pictured above. There were waterfalls cascading down these walls all around us and the air was fresh and clean. After settling in, our tour group gathered in the main dining room where we were given a demonstration on the art of making cheese fondue. Everyone had a good time enjoying the fondue which would lead into our Swiss Dinner.
