Our first stop was this statue. It is absolutely stunning, carved into the surrounding rock face. The lion is meant to represent the Swiss Gaurd who fought to the death defending the French royal family when they had already left through a back door during the French Revolution.
This is the pretty town of Lucerne where we looked at lots and lots of very nice (but expensive) watches. This bridge has a chapel midway across.
The beautiful Swiss alps
We went up the Jungfrau, the highest rail track in the world. At the top was plenty of snow and mountains. A snow fight ensued, of course
The weather was unfortunately not in our favour. The top picture is what we should see, the bottom is the view I got.
We also visited the Snow Palace, a room made out of ice and hosting a whole range of sculptures. This is me with Sherlock.
The snowman's name is Nutty. The birds loved the dried fruit and nuts that we attempted to use for nose and mouth.
And we found this, a €37,000 watch :O
All in all a very good day in the snow!
