[Idyllchat] Switzerland Questions

[Jay Cloidt]

I've done the Jungfrau trip twice. Once when cloudy, and once with crystal
clear skies. From Reuti in the the Heartland, it was a long trip but worth
it if it is clear. One advantage to staying in Reuti was that we could see
the north face of the Eiger from our living room window. We actually
cancelled plans to go when we saw the clouds on the Eiger, but two days
later we woke up to clear skies and we rushed to catch the first bus.

My first trip to Switzerland, we were looking at paragliding in Interlaken,
but the weather conspired against it. We did an Untour sampler, Heartland /
Ticino, last September and while we did not paraglide in the Berner
Oberland, we did in Ticino. It was fantastic.  Once you take off, it's like
gliding around in a big lounge chair. This is something they do all over
Switzerland, and you may not need to go all the way into Interlaken to do
it.
