Jungfraujoch Noch Mal


So I got to go up to the Jungfraujoch again (I went in December with my mom) but this time with the summer view. And of course, it was incredible! I already wrote about the Jungfrau region in my other blog, but to sum it up; it is not actually the tallest mountain in Europe but it is the highest railway, it took around 20 years to build, you have to change to 3 different kinds of trains as you go up the mountain, and it is one of the most spectacular places I have ever seen.  Aunt Kathy put it perfectly - there is nothing up there but there is a lot to see. Another of God's masterpieces.


On one side it is completely white with snow and glacier. We were thankful for another beautiful blue sky, but it didn't take long before everything turned completely white inside the clouds.


And the other side was green with a view down to the city. It wasn't near as cold like it was in winter time. It was so cool to see this place in 2 seasons.


We walked through a part of the glacier.

And played in the snow. It wasn't that cold - until we started the snow ball fight.

And one of my favorite things is always the beautiful scenery on the train ride, and the good company :)
