Our Snow Fun Adventure...Day 3

Our adventure continues on Day 3...what did we have planned for today? Snow tubing & tobogganing in the Swiss Alps, of course!

We travelled about 30 minutes or so from Lucerne, Switzerland to Engelberg, Switzerland...another BEAUTIFUL drive. We saw not just snow capped mountains, but Colin saw what he thought was frozen waterfalls. Whether this was just frozen run-off or actual frozen waterfalls, we don't know & that small detail really isn't important...the site was still spectacular! It was a great, beautiful, sunny day! Since our kids had never been skiing before, we opted to not put them in ski school. However, it would've been really cool to say that we've been skiing in the Swiss Alps. Maybe next time! And there is more to do in the Swiss Alps than just ski!

First, we started the day with a fun gondola ride up the Mt. Titlis resort! The kids had a great ride, and we enjoyed a breathtaking view! Of course, both the girls & the boys were practically attached at the hips! So, the girls all rode together, and all the boys rode together! All of the kids had such a fun time & probably could've stayed on the gondolas all day long!

So, our next stop was the "Snow Toys Park." Here, the resort has snow tubes, as well as 2 other contraptions, to ride if you aren't skiing. Greg rode both of the contraptions, but I don't know what they are called or even know where to begin to describe them! All in all, it was a fun adventure. Warning: this video may not be for the light of stomach viewers, but we thought you'd like a taste of our adventure!

After lunch, we rode the gondola about half way down the mountain. At this point, we found our way to the Tobogganing equipment. Well, actually, I call it sledding, but Greg says the official name is Tobogganing. Sheridan rode with me, and Colin rode with Greg. Sheridan & I crashed once, and Colin & Greg crashed twice. Although, when we were done, Sheridan would've rather have rode with Greg. She kept telling me to go faster & not slow down! If I had listened to her, I have no doubt that we would've crashed more!

This was an incredibly fun day! Here are the pics too:

We saw another opportunity for adventure in the Swiss Alps...something I'm sure Greg would've literally jumped to do. Check it out!

Just to recap our day...a little interview of the kids:

And so, there is Day 3! Our adventure continues tomorrow with a tour of the city of Lucerne...a must for the day...Swiss CHOCOLAT!!!
