Waterfalls and Big Lakes

Today we headed off to Trummelbach and Interlaken to view the internal mountain waterfalls and the beautiful blue lakes that surround what is supposedly the most expensive city in Switzerland (even beating those prices in Zurich!). The girls were really excited to see something as naturally strange as inside waterfalls and were blown away by what they were greeted by ... as well as the perfect sunshine that has continued to make our holiday full of picturesque views and sun cream.



The girls were really good with the slightly scary lift up to the 6th fall were the experience begins as well as with the extra height and steep wet steps that are involved in the climb to the very top. All were blown away by the noise and spray given off by the falls and were full of questions on how the falls were discovered, changed the shape of the rocks and made accessible to the public ... WARNING! the pictures below really don't give justice to what the girls experienced! 



Remember not to look down too quickly! 


MAD! 


Everything's illuminated which creates awesome colours. 


Wouldn't want to fall in from here! 


Some of our time was spent watching paragliders coming into land in the sun in Interlaken ... yup by 'our time' we mean the lazy leaders. 


Even though we had perfect sun you can just see the snow on the Jung Frau (White Bride).

We'll post some more tomorrow evening but for now that's Willow and Owl signing off to feed some sleep guides up with hot chocolate before an early night and a trip to see the bears in Bern.
