We left Zermatt early and headed off to Lugano - another out of the way excursion for most Americans traveling through Switzerland. It’s in the far southern tip of Switzerland, over a large portion of the Alps- less than an hour from the Italian border. It took us six hours and four train changes- but at this point, it’s all a part of the experience, right? We have a pretty good working relationship with each other in terms of navigation of train stations and getting our luggage on and off. It’s easy enough when the luggage rack is near the door and is empty, but proves to be more of a challenge when other people have chosen to transport luggage on the same train as we are. The nerve of some people.
It was a long day of travel, but with each train change, the terrain changed a bit and we went from snow capped alpine peaks to tree covered mountains with palm trees at the base. We went through a 10 mile tunnel, and over and through some of the most beautiful lands we’ve seen.
all aboard the Glacier Express.
Pretty sure if I were these cows, I wouldn't stand on the airport runway...
Yup - this is my life.
yeah - the selfie in full effect. Bless the Alps.
