View Switzerland - Day 10 in a larger map
Today we rode trains all day
But before that we bought some Swiss chocolate in the shape of the Matterhorn on our way to the train station because luckily the shop was open because it had closed just before we went to get some chocolate the night before. We also got croissant and pop for the train ride. The Swiss chocolate was really good. I tried the dark chocolate and milk chocolate ones and Justin tried the White chocolate and milk chocolate ones.
We checked the weather to see what it was supposed to be like all day (and to make sure we’d be able to get a lot of pictures on the Glacier Express). The weather said it was supposed to rain or snow along the entire route of the Glacier Express—thankfully the day turned out to be beautiful. The Glacier Express took us through the Swiss Alps. It Runs from Zermat to St. Moritz but we got off a little early at Chur.
When pulling into Chur it was still bright and sunny—but when we were leaving for Zurich the clouds had started to roll in and looked like it was going to storm. We were lucky that the weather held out for our trip through the mountains.
We took a train from Chur to Zurich, then Zurich to Munich. Munich is where we are staying the night today before heading to Fussen in the morning.
Since the past few enteries have been rather long I’ll keep this one short and let everyone look at the hundreds of pictures we took while riding the Glacier Express......when we get home.
We really enjoy the long winded postings---it's just not like you to be able to say anything in just a few words. The "....when we get home", was not funny because you haven't sent any pictures in the last two posting and we can't wait. We are very excited for you both. We can't wait until you get home we miss you and David is getting tired of doing "everything", I'm getting tired of listening to it!!! Some things never change!! We love you MK and even D
