Yes this place is real

23 August 2011

Lauterbrunnen valley is ridiculously gorgeous.   Looking back at the photos, I had a hard time choosing which one to use.  We took a train from Interlaken to Lauterbrunnen and then a cog railway to the town where this photo was taken - Wengen.  This town famously has no cars and one must ride the railway to get up there.  I assume locals are allowed cars but didn't see a single one while we were there.  The ride up to Wengen was amazing and picturesque and this view was worth every franc.  We were crammed in like cattle, but in Switzerland cows have rights too...but more on that later.  


On the left is the Jungfrau and on the right is the village of Lauterbrunnen and Staubbach Falls (300 m tall).
