Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

On my first solo day trip in Europe I went to the Schilthorn in Switzerland. I hiked through the valley and rode a gondola to the peak. It was amazing; a perfect day. However, the decent turned out to be quite an adventure in itself. While on the train down the mountain, I fell asleep and woke up as we were leaving Interlaken to go back up the mountain. I was a little upset, but figured I would just ride it back down again. However the train broke halfway up and we had to wait to jump tracks to a different train. Once I finally reached the top I was informed that it was the end of the line and that the trains were done for the night. Confused and lost, I was approached by some kind German couple who didn?t speak any English but luckily had a car...
