Zermatt(erhorn)

It's safe to say the view of the Disneyland's Matterhorn ride pales in comparison to the real thing. Largely in thanks to our donkey neighbors, we were up and at 'em early yesterday morning to hit to road to Zermatt. A few hours and picture breaks later, we found ourselves at the station to head into town.

We drove through the town of St. Niklaus - I couldn't resist.
Naturally, we had to fuel up before hitting the town.

You can't actually drive into Zermatt so we hitched a ride onboard the Matterhorn Gotthard train. Without the hustle and bustle of Fiats and Peugots, we found the city to be perfectly peaceful. A quick jaunt through town and a few photo shoots later, we were looking up at the most impressively beautiful mountain of life. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't exactly cooperating but we managed to enjoy our visit.


Dance posin' my way through Europe.
Famery.

We definitely have Zermatt(erhorn) on our to-do list for a repeat visit, hopefully this time with better weather.

on to the next one...
