Travelling in Switzerland is so much fun with a Swiss pass! The pass is valid for a certain number of days, and there is no hassle of buying tickets to go to any specific location during its validity.
We don't like popular tourist destinations. The numerous selfie sticks up in the air destroys the sheer beauty of the place; instead we love to go to unknown or lesser known places to enjoy the quietness. My hubby proposed...."let's get down at random stations, and board whatever train that comes next"....
When we got down at Sarnen en route Alpnachdorf, a small village where we were supposed to retire for that night, it was almost dusk. It was an evening to be etched in my memories for years to come. As I looked around, the surroundings were engulfed in a mystical blue hue. The blue had an enchanting spell and I was awestruck by its beauty. I have seen such blue earlier in Michigan nights but this blue in the alpine mountains was different in its own way....goes beyond my words....
Went up to the edge of the platform, and peered at the tracks in both directions....the tracks disappeared around the corner...seemed to come from and go in to the distant mountains....or maybe nowhere in particular? Where do we come from and where do we go? Life is so much like this mysterious train journey! We happen to hold a limited Swiss pass ever since we came to this world that lets us to be at a random station at any point of time, waiting for a train to take us to another station........
