Day 10: Bellinzona, Switzerland
We've now entered Italian-speaking Switzerland. It feels like an entirely different country.
Day 9: Airolo, Switzerland
Descended Grimsel and ascended Furka in the morning (you can see the switchbacks, right to left).
Day 8: Grimselpass, Switzerland
Climbed 1850m to an elevation of 2165m today. (It's cold up here, and very beautiful.) This ride demolished me. For dinner I had two pork cutlets, vegetables, a plate of fries, a pan of eggs, a pastry, and beer.
Day 7: Interlaken, Switzerland
Passed through Rosenlaui, two weeks earlier than anticipated due to weather-related plan changes. (We'll spend the next two weeks heading east, back to Munich.) This is Staubbach Falls in Lauterbrunnen valley.
Day 6: Meiringen, Switzerland
Meiringen, birthplace of the meringue. This is the building next to the hotel we nearly stayed at... as it burned down.
Day 2: Kreuth, Germany
A sudden late-afternoon thunderstorm forced us to take cover at a tiny hotel. This is the view from my room after the clouds passed.
Day 1: Munich, Germany
Arrived safely this morning with Piaw, Lisa, Cynthia, and Kekoa. We took the subway to downtown Munich.
