From
Lauterbrunnen, my parents and I made our way to the
Wallis. We decided to go up and over the
Grimsel pass, which was quite an exciting drive!
Once we were over the Grimsel pass, we headed in the direction of the
Furka Pass to see the
Rhonegletscher and its ice grottoes.

I am quite sure that I will run out of superlatives to describe the scenery, but, rest assured, the glacier was ginormous and wild and quite beautiful. From there, we made our way down the valley and to
Mühlebach, where we stayed in a 300-year-old Walliser house. Apparently people were quite a bit shorter 300 years ago?
