Good morning from Zurich!
23 dicembre 2019, Svizzera ⋅ 🌧 4 °C
So after about 12 hours of sleep, we have awoken in our Airbnb apartment ready for a day of exploring this city. It’s a bit overcast but with a top of 8 degrees, not too cold!! We are staying and catching up with a couple of our Brisbane friends who have been living overseas for the past year. Looking forward to walking around and exploring some Christmas Markets today :)Leggi altro

A bit slow in adding these photos but we had such a great time catching up with my friends Richelle and Travis in Zurich. We went for city strolls, walked through many Christmas Markets (mulled cider is much nicer than mulled wine in my opinion haha!) had lunch in a old arsenal building and visited the renowned Confiserie Sprüngli chocolate shop.Leggi altro

A couple km up at Wilespie (pronouced Vishpeel... I think).

We thought hiking with about fifty layers of clothing would be a good idea. It wasn't. We got about 500m out and had to turn back due to fitness limitations and ensuing heat stress. Wish I had a snowmobileLeggi altro

Viaggiatore Ah! Now I can see loads of photos!! (Not sure if I just couldn't see 'em before or if you hadn't loaded them.)

Viaggiatore BEWARE OF SPRÜNGLI!! And Bachmann! You must have heard of the La Brea Tar Pits - Sprüngli and Bachmann are the Swiss equivalents. Not quite as brutal, but the end is equally assured!!
25/12/19Risposta
Viaggiatore Great talking to you both yesterday! As you could see we were in good form, and of course Arnie was in charge.

We spent a couple of hours exploring the towns of Gstaad and Sannen during the afternoon on Christmas Day. Some amazing Swiss Chalets and interesting shops! Lots of fancy people in Gstaad which made for some great people watching. Finished off with a tea and coffee at a lovely cafe in Saanen. Back to our Airbnb to make a roast chicken and some cake for Christmas dinner. A nice day all round!Leggi altro

Scex Rouge & Glacier 3000
26 dicembre 2019, Svizzera ⋅ ⛅ -3 °C
Accessed via Col du Pillion (mountain pass) about 30mins out from Gstaad/Turbach. The cable car access feat of engineering craftiness due to the shear elevation it traverses in a short span. The rope cable itself must weigh many tonnes, especially packed with skiiers and tourists fully laden with Swiss cheese and crackers.

Up the top is a restaurant, ski lifts and a steel bridge ("Peak Walk") to access the Scex Rouge peak. You can see a snowy plateau about 100m below the peak on the video recording when the camera swings around, which I assume is the glacier. The marketing name is Glacier 3000, it's official name is Tsantleuron Glacier.

Pub Ammo: In 2017 one of the ski operators found the bodies of a Swiss couple that went missing in 1942; their bodies perfectly preserved once the glacier receded.Leggi altro

Refuge Restaurant

If you listen carefully in the videos, you can hear us struggling to breathe/survive. We almost turned back many times due to suspected altitude sickness & lack of sherpas. The walk to this tiny little shack serving drinks and food on the side of a cliff face was 2.5km, but it was worth the trek.Leggi altro

Viaggiatore Amazing finding that restaurant up in the mountains. Was this in Slovenia?
