Interlaken is a quaint little town between two lakes with beautiful scenic snow capped mountains surrounding the area. We stayed three days and took daily side trips. From our hotel window, we could see the glacier called Jungfrau and because it was visible, it seemed like a good day to venture over. Jungfrau is 11,500 feet high and refered to as the "Top of Europe". After a 2 1/2 hour train ride, with the last 30 minutes riding inside a tunnel in the mountain glacier, we emerged to below zero celcius temperature and winds. Burrrrr! We were above the clouds, so the view was clear and stunning. There was also an ice tunnel with ice cravings, a permanent structure. The floor and sides of the tunnel, all ice, was amazingly smooth and not slippery. Of course, on a train stop on our return, Glenn is seen here considering his next meal.

I am surprised your Glenn's hands were not somewhere else in that picture with the utensils. Where's the Glenn that we know!!
