switzerland

a trip to switzerland made me realised how nice fresh air can smell.

6
very photogenic constructions.

in singapore all i get is a breathful of exhaust and at the end of the day there is alot of gold to dig. =\

7
coach drivers are supposed to off their engines when their car is stationary, and everyone abides by the sign cos they want to preserve the fresh air in swiss.
try putting this sign [ note: its without any FINES or SUMMONS warning] in Singapore, see who cares.

4
bought this 24hr tram ticket and went on a tour to Mount Titlis. $147 swiss francs for the tour. ='(

5
its no wonder why i couldnt make out the way to the right tram station.
luckily the other crew knows.

3
the main terminal so called.

8
Welcome to the foot of Mount Titlis.
Hello breathtakening view.
Hello fresh air.
Hello cool climate.

9
cable car up to Mount Titlis.
very very scary.
10times more scary than the mount faber one from Sentosa.

10
had to transfer to another cable car, but this one rotates while travelling up so that we can enjoy 360degree view of the mountain.
very smart. =]

12
finally, at the peak of Mount Titlis.

snow snow snow !!!

13
seeing my nike ACG sink into the snow made me very happy.
it wasnt that cold on the mountain, probably cos its summer, and the snow were melting.
had a hard time walkin on the snow.
we walked like we were drunk.
one funny crew wore leather shoes and he walked like he was totally drunk. the other 2 of us had to hold on to him on each side so as to stablise him.

up
sat on the Ice Flyer, where i could have my legs dangling in the air, midway of dunno how many feet high.

1
whenever i looked down i would imagine myself falling.
so dumb.

14
had a go at the snow slope, with the other 2 guys.
very fun. very fun. =]

15
eating ice cream in an ice cave is very shiok.

16
very cute ang moh girl. =)

17
tired from all the mountains, we finally came to Lucerne, a city in Swiss.

18
Chapel bridge, the oldest covered bridge in Europe, constructed in 1408.

19
the only full meal i had in Switzerland.
so expensive can the Mcdonalds.
it was abt $12 swiss francs, times 1.3 to make it into SGD.
for one meal ok?!
=(
never upsize somemore.
curry sauce still need 30cents swiss francs.

last but not least,
my buys:

21
all the swiss chocolates.
cheap cheap.
and my Longchamp bag!

20
my mama say she wouldnt buy this bag no matter how cheap it is.
and when i told her it costs $105 swiss francs, she looked at me as though i was mad.
and she say the colour is ugly, the shape is go market bring one..
=(
she nv hear the brand before mah! chey.

within 5 mins, i grabbed this bag and ran to the cashier cos by the time i decided which colour and size to buy, i only had 3 more mins to go before the tour coach say bye bye to me.
but i like this colour what!
i say nice, means nice.

hehe.

and to irritate her i am going to buy more Longchamp bags of different colours and sizes.
