Day 6: Up the Mountain

We started the day with a drive to Zurich, where we toured Anabaptist historical sites.  We visited the Grossmunster church on the Limmat River, where early Anabaptists started Bible studies.  We visited the street where Conrad Grebel baptized George Blaurock in 1525.  We also visited the site of the house where Grebel grew up, pictured below.
In the top right corner of the picture is an inscription about Grebel.

We then ate lunch by the Limmat and admired the swans.

We drove from Zurich to Interlochen and then up to Grindelwald, high in the Swiss Alps.  Our GPS was excellent notwithstanding a few twists and turns.

We stopped on the way up for coffee and a nice view.

At Grindelwald we hopped on cable cars for the ride up to our guesthouse, where we had a relaxed evening watching the clouds pass by the mountain peaks, looking at wild flowers, and listening to the many many cowbells.  The guesthouse is primarily accessed by cable car so once those stopped around 5pm it got very quiet and calm up on the mountainside. The views below are from outside our guesthouse.
