Swiss Trip

Yet another fantastic trip, But as you know all trips are normal i.e. if everything goes perfect in your trip then you need to make sure that nothing miserable happens at last moment to make your extra-ordinary trip ordinary.Same happens to our Swiss trip. Frankly speaking we did not plan trip like we did for the Europe tour. We decided to see limited venues and spending time instead of running at all the places.
We started our journey with City Night Line train, one of the best night train I ever seen, great comfert, Morning we were in the Basel, a place which is part which located at border of France, Germany and Swiss. Famous place was Rhine(don't know spell is correct or not) river, market. I did not find this place impressive.At 10 we started our journey towards Interlaken, one of the best tourist place in the Swiss. No wonder why many people comes here. Its just a heaven. Interestingly 40% tourist were Indians over here. We reached around 12 PM and we saw Cruise was about to leave for lake ride. Interlaken is the place which is situated at corner of two lakes. This is the place where two lakes meet together. Lake ride was one of the best part. Lots of "Windows Desktop" we saw in that ride. In my life such views I saw in the forwards mails only, but this time I was seeing in reality.Lake surrounded by the ice covered mountains, sunny sky makes things perfect. After 4 hours of trip, we landed on the of the corner of lake called as the Thun. We took bus to get back to Interlaken. But bus stopped on the one of the stop and driver told us that this runs up to this place only. After half an hour another bus will come and will take u.Meanwhile we discovered a cable train which takes to top of mountain. That was indeed a surprise for all of us. Cable train took us at top and we just amaze with the view. First time I saw ice covering whole mountain. At top we did lot of fun. Its very diff to walk on the ice, almost one feet big hole after putting your leg in the ice. We reached at top of that mountain and photo session started.
After very tired travel and whole day without bath, we decided to hit our hotel. It was very near to the station and within one hour we were out for food. We discovered Indian restra and ate a lot. After a long time we were eating some dhang ka food. Don't ask about bill, it was too much.
Second day out spot was Top of Europe ie janfraug.We caught the train from the interlaken and after changing three train we were at the top. But travel by three train was not easy. First one was OK, but second and third train travel was almost like train running on strip path almost 45 degree inclination. How train engine was handling to move its other compartment to go up god knows. Same for brake too. Swiss guys use their train system to the limit, bravo to them.At the top, it was sunny, everywhere snow. Temperature was too much ie not cold but too hot, that's I also experienced first time. Just in front of us helicopter landed, it seems he parks the helicopter and went away, we took lot of snaps there. But view from top was amazing, extremely sorry I cannot put in the words over here, I am not poet nor writer, its the thing need to be experienced cannot write down. Sorry for that. We walked a lot on the snow and got too tired. All the infrastructure at the top from Swiss govt was excellent. No panic, No danger, everything was planned and arranged systematically. The way Swiss promoted their tourism is incredible, they are master in it. Janfraug took us whole one day. Body was tired and again we hit the Indian Restra, again don't ask about bill. After that we went to place where we catch Cruise on first day just roaming at station.
Third day We woke up at 5 and were ready by 6 to go Mount Pilatus and Mount Titli. View from Golden panoramic Train was great. Train always runs near to shore of lake and giving great views from train. Our first destination was Pilatus. we went to luzern n we took bus. We started our journey towards the Pilatus from one of the cable car. First time in my life I was taking ride of cable car. Ride took almost 1 hour with change of cable car one time. Again view from top was too too great, we were in the clouds and it feels very great over there. Snow everywhere and sunny and cloudy, mix time of environment makes things perfect for trip. After Pilatus, we went to the Mount Titli. One of the top point in Swiss. We change cable cars trice and we were at the top. Lots of excursion rides making our time memorial, Again lots of snaps, then we came to luzern back and then came to zuirich. We had our dinner in mcde and city roaming. Everything was perfect, no problem at all. Now just hit the train and go to sleep. But...
Just before starting of train we found out that our return journey date is two month after ie in June, none of us saw this before, and we were not allow in the train. Its a shock to us in minutes, we need to reach at clients place any how on Tuesday. We went to travel desk they gave us way to Amsterdam by catching three trains and we can reach to Utrecht at 1130.Again we paid there and changing trains at Basel, Koln. From Koln we again enquired and came to know if we start journey by diff route we can reach utrech by 10 but changing four trains. So we decided to change four trains. I don't know name of the places, but some how we mange to do that. Now I am in office feeling sleepy, need to attend meeting in the evening, n writing blog in sleepy mood too. Hv a nice time.
