Another great hiking day

Two days ago we were blessed with the parting of the clouds, revealing the snowcapped mountains. We hiked from Grindelwald to Bort then we took the gondola to a place called First. Once we arrived at First I (Craig) hiked 50 minutes to Bachalpsee Lake. Yesterday it was raining in Grindelwald and snowing on the mountains, so we decided to have pajama day and recovered from our hike at the hostel.
Today, the weather cleared up. We did a marathon hike up one of the mountains in the pictures we posted a couple days ago. We hiked four and a half hours from Grindelwald to Alpinlen to Mannlichen. The hike back down the mountain was about two and a half hours. Most people pay the $16.00 for the gondola ride to the top. We enjoyed some coffee and bowl of soup on the top of the mountain instead. We rested a bit in a hammock at the top and took photos of the majestic mountains.
Beautiful!
