Day 3, Our Chalet and Swiss Folklore Festival




This morning we woke up nice and early at 6:00 and were out the door by 7:00 on our way to our chalet. We had a 2 hour bus ride from our hotel, hotel tell. Then a 5 minute walk. On our way back we stopped by the lion statue, and did some shopping. We got to climb the bell tower which was really cool though the steps were steep and there was alot of walking we made it. Such an amazing view from up there, it was worth the long hike up. After that we did more shopping/sight seeing. Then we were on our way to Stadtkeller for supper where we had Swiss cheese fondue, Pork steak with tomatoes, onions, and baked cheese, then we had something called Rosti which is grated and fried potatoes with spinach then for dessert we had Meringue with apple sauce and strawberry ice cream. During our meal there was a folklore festival with original swiss folk music, yodeling, alphornblowing and flagthrowing national costumes, and a typical swiss atmosphere it was a very fun day with lots of picture opportunities.
