The Lary's and Mejia's enjoyed an unforgettable trip to Grindelwald - at the base of the Eiger's north face (13,026 ft), a village in the Bernese Oberland near Interlaken. The highlight was an afternoon "on top of Europe" at the Jungfraujoch. This high-Alpine wonderland of eternal ice and snow sits at 11,333 feet. Europe's highest-altitude railway station ends after this amazing 1.5 hour train ride through the Alps (literally). As you'll see - the sights were amazing!

Here it is...


Time on the "Golden Pass" railway...




Mama Cece - knock-knock!!


What a view...
Kellen admits Grandma Lary would not like this!

The Monch peak at 13,475 feet...



Yes - the "dots" at the bottom are glacier hikers...

Don't look behind!
Yes - we're behind the ropes, Grandma!

... the camera survived!

What a beautiful family. Your children are so sweet. My son, Jack, who is now 13, still likes his crew cuts, so I encourage you to keep that up with the boys as long as possible -- it makes hair care so much easier! I'm so glad you sent me the link to your blog. Great idea -- wonderful way to share with your friends and family!
