We had a awesome day today. Switzerland is such a beautiful country there are mountains everywhere and its just indescribable. We went for yet another cruise on Lake Luzern and tomorrow we are heading into the Alps for a day in the snow.
Engelbery is another small town and really flat too. We had dinner at a restaurant called Europaischer which was ok except they had waiters go around asking for a drinks order (all the other places we had dinner we got one drink free) so we all ordered one with no one telling us we had to pay for them and then at the end of the night they came around for money! and they charged us different prices for the same thing! Very el dodgeo!
After dinner we headed over to the Eden Bar which was across from our hotel fantastic location :) and we danced the night away. At the beginning of the night we wanted to try absenth which make you see things so we asked at the bar and we all lined up to get one, after we took the shot we were all wondering why nothing was happening so i went to get another and they told me they didnt have absenth so i asked what we had before and they said Absolut Vodka!!
In the morning we walked to the bottom of Mt Titlis which was about 500m from our hotel and we took the only revolving cable car up to the top. It was just amazing at the top one minute we were stinking hot and the next we were in the snow. We played in the snow for about 2 hours. It want as cold as i was expecting and most of the time i was carrying my jumpers around, my back did get burnt tho. They had they tobbogons which we rode down the slope it was hard work getting back to the top but so much fun. After we had lunch we rode these scoters downt he mountain i was scared i was gonna fall off but it was so much fun.
After getting back to the hotel we just sat around talking on the balcony and went and found a shop and bought food so we had our own little party!
