We have just returned from our trip to Switzerland. We had a wonderful time, and both Jason and I feel it is the prettiest place we have ever visited.
This was the first Bed & Breakfast we stayed at, called Sunny Days. It's located in Interlaken, a city that sits right between two beautiful, blue lakes.
From Interlaken, we took the train and then cable cars to Murren, a ski-resort city. Lodges and chalets such as this one were everywhere. Supposedly, people aren't allowed to build homes of any other style.
Jason on top of a bench in Murren. Impressive.
We took this picture ourselves from a city across the valley from Murren called Wengen. It had the most incredible view of the valley and the mountains across the way.
The second place we stayed was in Lutschental, a country B&B outside of the touristy towns. It was definitely "homey."
Today we went up to the Shilthorn. We are packed in this cable car going up the mountain. I may look composed but these cable cars scared me every time.

J&A on top of the Shilthorn. It was about 0 degrees outside, which isn't bad locals say.
J&A in a cute town at the base of the Alps called Grindlewald.
The last couple days we spent in Luzern. We took a gorgeous train ride into the mountains. Here are a couple photos Jason shot from the train.
This is where we stayed at in Luzern, our final destination. It wasn't a Bed & Breakfast, but it did have an open, sunny dining area enclosed in glass where we ate the first night.
This track is surprisingly right next to a massive wall that served as a fortress in Luzern. Jason would have been a great track star. Look at that stance.
Our lunch in Luzern, with our legs hanging over the edge over the water. Sandwiches, apples, bananas, granola bars, and of course swiss chocolate and swiss cheese--it doesn't get any better than that.
The famous bridge in Luzern.
In Switzerland fondue is a common dish. They had chocolate fondue too, but we just got cheese. Hashbrowns and bratwurts usually accompany the fondue, which we also had.

The pictures are beautiful! The mountains take my breath away. I would be scared of the cable cars too. You two are seeing the world. SO adventurous. Your hair looks so long in the last picture-its so pretty! Miss & love you!
Holy Buckets! That is really pretty. So how long were you traveling for. It looks like you saw lots of different things.
I am so jealous. It looks so beautiful there. Oh and you are so beautiful in the pictures(Andrea that is). It looks like you guys are enjoying you time. It sounds like so much fun. Thanks for the add to view the blog. I will check it regularly now.
You two look like a bunch of spoiled, trust-fund yuppies, delighting in the high life. (lol) The pictures are stunning. Live it up, while you have the chance.
Oh Andrea, speaking of yuppies. Every time I see someone that knows you, they ask, "So where's Andrea living?" I always patently respond, "She married some ambitious entrepreneur and they are living on some beach front property off the coast of Spain." (lol) You should see some of the looks that I get. Simply, hilarious. By the way, I'm not joking. I just told someone that this morning at the Athletic Club--Robin Beeler?
Oh my goodness gracious, your hair is so long, I love it! and the pictures are amazing! I am so jealous of your travels!
