Switzerland – History, Mountains and Lakes

A trip across western Switzerland – including Basel, Bern, Interlaken and Jungfrau, Lausanne, Lake Léman, Chillon and Geneve. Video recorded on mazely’s trip, on winter 2007. Soundratrack by mazely – a Brazilian who’s not used to -9ºC (15ºF), composed in June 2007. Originally in Portuguese. ~~~~ I’d like to thank my wife and the Korean guy who took my picture with the Jungfrau Peak (I’ll never know his name). And also thanks to Mike Shiva. My last “thank you” to the kind Portuguese waiter at Olympia restaurant, at Continental hotel – Lausanne (the city I liked the most). He gave me an unforgettable lesson about fondues – essential!

   nice video.
   but its really hard to believe that it was only -9° on the jungfraujoch in winter. you must have caught a fine day. i remember going skiing that high in another part of switzerland when we had about -30°.
   so cool you went to basel. i hoe you enjoyed my hometown!

    This is great, “mazely”! it brought a lot of my sweet memories about Swiss! I want to go there once more – especially to Lausanne and Montreux (an “petite hommage” to F. Mercury)… The postcards with “water get” in Geneva – that a funny proof “it was there, I knew it”. I visites Swiss in autumn, it was turned on ))))

    Thanks. “Zelda”?
    M Shiva mesmerized me. It was hard to turn the TV off, because of that hilarious guy – the germanic funnier version of Walter Mercado.
    The temperature was -9C at Jungfraujoch, but I’m sure the wind chill was really impressive. I just didn’t have a way of measuring, but it was very windy.
    -9C, at 3500m, in winter… I really expected more (I mean, less). You know, global warming… Anyway, seeing ice and snow was already a big deal considering the place where I live.

    Excellent. Need to plan my next trip out there, it’s a shame your ‘piece to camera’ didn’t work at Jungfraujoch! I never made it to the station because of the conditions but at Kleine Scheidegg it was -16 with a wind chill of -26!
    5 Stars (and love the music, very Zelda!)
