At night the Staubbach falls outside our hotel room were illuminated.
On our third and last day in Lauterbrunnen we really wanted to go to the Jungfraujoch "top of Europe" train station which is the highest train station in Europe at 11,329ft. They have live television cameras from the top and since we have been here they have shown nothing but clouds. As a matter of fact, we had yet to even see the tops of the peaks from the valley floor - there had been an always present low layer of clouds obscuring them. *** After breakfast we were talking (more or less given the English/German translations we were both doing) about whether the clouds would break up (the forecast was for partly cloudy skies but the alps tend to have their own weather). She was pretty confident it would so we bought tickets to Kleine Scheidegg which is about 2/3s the way up. It was clear at least that far up so we could go there and make the final decision about buying the rather expensive tickets to go all the way up.
