Mt Titlis, Zurich~

Gonna be a long blog cos there's like almost 38 photos
(fyi, we took 200++photos!!)
Moi had a hard time deciding because all the photos look so nice!! the view, the scenery, the deep blue sky...
Oh man!!! It was totally breath taking~

Mt Titlis, at 10,000 feet, is one of the many mountains in Switzerland~
It offers snow and ice experience on the highest viewpoint in Central Switzerland

Meet Shankar!! my sightseeing buddy to Mt. Titlis, fyi, he's like from the entertainment industry before he joined the airline and claimed to be somehow famous among the Indian population~ (although i have no idea who he is) >_<
On the bus to Mt. Titlis~
Journey took almost 2hours...with nothing to do, we start snapping photos with the outside view as background
Finally, we reached the base of Mt Titlis~

UP WE GO~

We saw people skiing down the slopes....so cool~Going higher and higher~
More people skiingReached 8200 feet
Up we go again to 10,000 feet above sea level
This is the ice cave right on top of Mt. Titlis

It's bloody cold in there, you can tell from Shankar's expression...
now i know how eskimos live
Shankar is so sweet! He wrote my name on the icy cold wall...
Awwww~ *touched* The view from the top of Mt. Titlis...
issit just me or do you think the sky looks bluer up at 10000feet...
I donno why i stick my tongue out~
Must be something about Shankar..haha

Took a photo with a skier? i love his hair!!!
The little girl in me loves fluffy snow~To Shankar: Hey Dude! the bunny ears thingy is so passé :P
I was literally screaming my head off from top to bottom..It was so embarrassing~This is probably one of the most memorable photo. The guy who took this photo tried 5 times before finally taking it. We asked him to press and hold down the button (who sounds really easy) but somehow or rather, when he said he took the picture, we viewed the preview...and its not there!!! Arghhh..had to do it for another 5times before he finally managed to take a photo.. Geez~ I guess that's the problem when there is only two persons in a tour.
It's either Shankar takes my photo, then we will switch and i'll take his photo...
So hard to take a photo with both of us in it...

Moi took a photo of a cute lil toddler throwing a tantrum...i thot it was cute. Shankar said it was mean of me to take a photo of him crying...keke Photo of moi and this blue-eyed baby doll.
She is SO SO SO ADORABLE!!!
Such an angel~
I wanna have a baby!!!!!!

URGHHHHH


Darn, i just love blue eyes~ it's so so mesmerizing
Tom have really beautiful sky blue eyes. I could just stare at them all day long...
isnt it depressing that my children wouldnt have Tom's blue eyes?
Sighz, their will prob be dark or light brown....


More photos of Mt TitlisAnd finally a group photoNEXT STOP:
Lucerne, is a city in central Switzerland and also one of the highly recommended places for tourists. Takes about an hour by train from the Zurich airport and 45mins by train if travelling from Zurich city to Lucerne

We are super duper lucky to be there when they are having a street carnival~
The carnival is famous for it's chaotic "march any direction you like" street parades and elaborate masks. It's so amazing to see the whole population of Lucerne decked out in elaborate costumes. From small toddlers to 90 years old man. The whole family participating in this special event~
One of the city's famous landmarks is the Chapel Bridge. Unfortunately the old bridge was burned down on 18th August 1993 by some insane person. Within a few months it was rebuilt again..Night falling~
time to head back to Zurich city..
Hope to be back someday~
