Switzerland or bust!

No seriously soooo expensive here! We knew it would be to some extent but it's ridiculous! Great it's at the very end of the trip.

Woke up on time, surprisingly. Made all the train connections from our hotel to the main station at 5:55, got Starbucks, made our 6:45 to the border of Germany and Switzerland. Made the next connection barely for Interlaken. Arrived at Interlaken around 2pm took another train to Grindelwald where we are staying in the Alps.

Tried to check in at 3:45 but you couldn't till 4:30 so we walked and thought we'd get food. Are you kidding? Like 24 franks for spaghetti and that seemed normal. We had burgers for like 12 franks and if you wanted fries it was and extra 5 franks! The frank is about 25% stronger than the dollar.

We're at a dorm hostel but are sharing a room with a cool couple from Brooklyn AND they're married! what? Unheard of! :) Makes it nice.

Couldn't go anywhere because everything shut down at like 5 so we're going to be early to get up early and hike! :)
