Swiss Cheese, Swiss Chocolate, Swiss Swissles

My current diet primarily consists of gluten free bread, cheese, chocolate, and apples. I really can't complain though because buying cheese and chocolate in Switzerland is like buying a german shepherd in Germany. It's perfect.

Whilst on our group trip, we have been given the luxury of a travel coach. You know, like the greyhound buses. One would consider this appealing and yes, I do. However, the streets of Europe are about as narrow as my driveway in Illinois. Yikes. Large bus, little streets=fearing for my life. We've been inches close to hitting anything from buildings to bikers to BMWs...


Did I mention that I love Switzerland. The Swiss ALPS. Glory. I can't get enough of them.
This was a friendly swan that almost touched Lauren...

One of my favorite things that we've done thus far was in Vitznau, Switzerland. We took a trolley car from the base of a mountain to the top. Here is the base:


Once we got up top, we were served a delicious 3 course lunch and enjoyed spectacular views of the Alps.
Lindsay and Sarah are holding up our delicious desert. Some sort of pudding made with irish cream.

Then we entered the Hunger Games and gathered at the Cornucopia, which is apparently used for yodeling in Switzerland.  


And I would now like to entertain you with an embarrassing video of the ride down the mountain...

And our hotel for tonight is in Montreaux, Switzerland aka Disneyland of Switzerland. People, games, country music, and a lot of anticipation for the Chelsea vs. Munich game that's happening RIGHT now! (I do not know anything about soccer) All I know is that a lot of strangers have been calling my name tonight. 

I will leave you with the sunset in Montreaux on Lake Geneva.
