Crowne Plaza Hotel's breakfast, move hotel move until sian...
Some red trees outside the hotel.
Wanted to pick up the leaves and throw, but they were all frozen and stuck to the grass lolxx...
Pee stop.
The air was different, the scenery was different. It's another world, just like Singapore and JB, totally different.
Crossed the border without chopping passport, sad sia, I wanted a Switzerland chop! Yes, literally like a breeze, we were officially in Switzerland. Drastic contrast of Singapore - JB.
Starting to see snow alps.
I thought this was beautiful, but there were more on the way, Switzerland...... it's a land dropped from heaven.
On the way to Zermatt.
Snow, weeeeeeee....
And clouds.....
Heres' Zermatt.... and a huge live Xmas tree, inhale the fresh fragrance of pine.
Train station where we boarded up to Matterhorn after lunch.
Beautiful little town seen on IG and postcards.
My black wool trench coat was still good. It was my best buy from Hokkaido around SDG35.
Couldn't believe this town was real.
We walked around the small town, took a quick spin in the mini mart.
Things which were expensive in Singapore like cheese, parma ham etc., were cheap, anything asian was expensive.
Coloured eggs.
Coloured mee pok pasta.
Surprised to see sushi!
Outside the mini mart were Xmas trees, waaaa.... I really envy locals, they can have real trees de.
Chocolate sheets, so interesting.
We ended up having lunch here.
We shared a pizza.
I was grinning from left to right, going to miss this place.
WangLei & Team arrived, we had a group photo before setting off to Matterhorn.
The train station was very quiet, not something I expected.
Tap card for scenic train.
More snow as the train moved up.
Scenery to die for...
Can cry sia... so unreal. It's so familiar (seen so many times in Youtube and all), yet it's our first.
Famous "triangle chocolate mountain"!!!
Zermatt from the top view.
Sibei swee....
Weather was awesome, cute pointy mountain could be seen clearly against bright blue sky.
目睹此景,此生足矣
Pic with Wang Lei, nice old guy.
Another pic with the team.
Didn't know need to step on snow, wore the wrong shoes, my shoes weren't water resistant sia, all wet.
The other mountains looked great too.
"Hide-out" house with heater and Starbucks inside.
We saw the moon.
Back to the train.
Enjoy the last bit of Zermatt while it last.
So beautiful, I died.
Moved on to Montreux for Xmas pasar malam market.
Made in China.
See look only, never bought anything except for food.
Churros = bread coated with sugar, gotten boring after the 2nd piece.
Interesting hot dog grill.
We had veal + pork sausage, damn nice sia. When asked what sauce I wanted, I said all. Gotten 3 sauces charged CHf 1.50/packet. I thought was free.
Xmas vibes in ang mo country was different from Asia, heehee...
Stomach half filled at the Xmas Market, needed to fill the other half.
We came into this restaurant called Fuji.
Peking Duck which was actually deep fried duck, but tasted not bad.
Stir fried veg, not sure where were the leaves.
Accommodation in a beautiful historical building, Fairmont Le Montreux Place.
Hotel's lobby area.
Live Xmas tree, never seen a faux tree all these days, love it.
Tried to use the machine, too stupid, so at the end had to call somebody to teach us lolxx...
Poor old man said I snored too loudly for him to sleep, I felt so bad sia.
More of Switzerland the next day.
