We woke up to a beautiful day, had a quick breakfast, then headed back down the mountain to Vitznau. (Luckily the Japanese tour group was taking a different train.) We retraced our steps back to Lucerne, quickly grabbed all our luggage and ran to catch the train leaving for Interlaken, a resort town high in the Alps. After dropping off our bags and settling in to our rooms, we struck out to investigate the city. We found a great open field where cows sometimes graze (in the middle of the city!), and Claire had a great time chasing birds and just letting loose. We ate a great dinner at a pizza place and listened to a fantastic cover band while Claire played in the little town square. Since we had had so many busy days, we headed back to the hotel early so that Claire could have a good night's sleep. It was a good thing we did that, too, because tomorrow turned out to be much more of an adventure than we had planned.
Getting a little too comfortable with the boat
The view from our balcony--little did we know that we were about to become intimately familiar with this mountain.......
