Gimmelwald, Switzerland June 7, 2013

Up early, 5 trains, 1 bus and a tram brought us to Gimmelwald, Switzerland.  For those of you who remember the TV show "George" about a St. Bernard helping/rescuing people in the Swiss Alps - we are here.  I mentioned the tram (heights seems to be a common theme on this trip), well it is the only way to get to Gimmelwald, no cars up here.  We arrived in the afternoon and had cheese fondue and a beer.  Check, check.  For Dinner we had spaetzle.  Check. We are now sitting on the deck of Esther's Guesthouse - our home for at least the next 3 days.  We may visit Murren tomorrow which is another little town only accessible by tram. Short and sweet today - I will let the pictures do the talking!
