Woke up this morning early to a perfect day, not a cloud in the sky. We quickly got up to make the cable car to the top of the Schilthorn for breakfast. To get to the top, you have to take the cable car to the town of Murren then walk through the small town to the next cable car to brig, quick switch then on to the top. The top of the Schilthorn there is an observation deck, gift shop and solar powered revolving restaurant. We went for breakfast that to our surprise also included champagne and all you can eat any type of breakfast food you could wish for. The views from the top were amazing, from 2970 m. You could see for miles from the snowy top to the green and lakes at the bottom. On the way down we stopped in the town of Murren and did some shopping. Even though this is actually their off season there was still enough shops open for us the help out the economy. On the way down, we were extremely lucky to see some wildlife, a Steinbock which is a species of a wild goat. Once down on the valley floor it was back to reality with laundry, then on to our next stop, the Matterhorn. Hopefully our luck will hold and we will be able to see the world’s most recognized mountain.
