Word of the day: Skiën (Skiing)
ZERMMAT, SWITZERLAND... Today we were hoping to take the cable car/ ski lift all the way up to the Matterhorn. Its summit is 4,478 metres (14,690 ft), making it one of the highest peaks in the Alps.
But we were only able to go about 3/4th of the way (3,000 meters) bc they were doing some maintenance on the lift to the top, which was fine bc it was actually snowing once we got up there so you really couldn't see a whole lot at certain points. (remember back On the ground, at the base, it was probably mid50s) but we did get to see the Matterhorn's peak from the hotel.
Tonight is also the last night we will be with my parents :( They are continuing on to Italy for about another week! So we decided to have a more chill night and do fondue in the room. Since we are staying at a place that has a small kitchenette and our hotel owner let us know there was fondue pots it was going to be super easy! Definitely "fun-due"... Lots of cheese, bread, apples and pears. No need for anything else. We were full!!
We had the BEST time with Steve and you ...definitely a trip of a lifetime! Everything you planned was amazing. Amsterdam, Keukenhof, Maastritch, Aachen, Paris, St. Moritz and Zermatt. We will never forget the places we toured and will forever treasure our time with you both. Love ...Ciao baby!
