All Mountain landscapes hold some stories. ❤️

One more ticked off the bucketlist.

Disneyland, you are one of a kind. You made my heart feel younger, happy and excited all at once.

It was a dream to witness the Disney magic and i was so overwhelmed by the experience. Just as I said my first day in Paris was a complete let down because of my low energy, Day 2 was completely at Disneyland and i enjoyed myself to the fullest.

P.s. Disneyland Paris tickets must be bought in advance. No counter sale was available.

First Cliff Walk in Grindelwald, Switzerland.

It is a cliff walking experience on a Suspension Bridge. To reach up there, there is an entry fee and a cable car ride that takes you to the top and to the start point of the suspension bridge.

• How to Reach here from Zurich

1. Take a Train from Zurich HB, main station to Interlaken OST.
2. From Interlaken OST take a cogwheel train to Grindelwald station.

Walk for about 10 minutes to reach to the ticket office.

• Price- 32 CHF per adult.

•Start and end time-

The activities start at 9 Am and end at 4.30 Pm.

This is a good experience to have. There are many activities up there like a chair flyer, mountain bike rides and they have a separate ticket.

Switzerland is beautiful, but I've had similar experiences in our Kashmir and even more in Ladakh. So the mountains and tourist experience here was a bit tough for me to differentiate still i have a few experiences to share.

Certain things i like and don't like about Switzerland and something we can learn from-

1. World class transportation network- It has made transport so convenient that if you get off the train, a bus station is right in front and if you don't find bus the tram is already waiting. This makes travel easy there, especially if you are a first time visitor.

2. Very disciplined - People's self discipline here is admirable. Their traffic rules, noiseless drive, garbage disposal, importance of time, can be qualities to look up to.

3. Things i didn't like were no flexible changes for tourists in terms of check-in or baggage drop. Their check-in's are very late , either 2pm or 4pm. It wastes your entire day. This can be subjected to certain stays only, some of them are really good and accomodating. We experienced both.

4. Flushing of toilet rolls- Well we all know western countries and their washrooms. Even tho paper is recyclable and can be flushed but certain washrooms were so filled up with toilet paper and since there is hardly anyone to clean, it remains unclean most of the time. It's not just tourist but even locals do that. No proper way to dispose the toilet paper/tissues.
