We started the day in a little lakeside town that has experienced a tourism boom from Koreans in Switzerland: Iseltwald.
Thanks to the Netflix drama "Crash Landing on You" this place is a mecca. I'm curious about the show now - have you ever heard about it? It's about 30 minutes by slow bus from Interlaken, and about 15 minutes by express. We took the slow one there and lucked out with the express one back.
We got there around 9:30AM and sure enough there were busloads of Korean Tourists I can only assume recreating poses and scenes from the show... I should have taken pictures.
We wandered around for a bit, and took a short hike to the Isch waterfalls.
In all we stayed about 90 minutes; it was enough.
On our way to the falls, you have to cross a busy road and near the parking lot there was a sign pointing down the direction to the town that made me chuckle. I really need to check out this show!
Most people who come here go to the Giessbach falls but it was a 2 hour walk away and we didn't feel like walking the 2 hours back! Instead, by around 11 we headed over to Mürren for the afternoon.
We stopped in Lauterbrunnen for a terrific lunch
We found a sunny spot with a killer view, and I settled in for TWO Aperol Spritz! It was just so spectacular I didn't want to move.
Supper was across the street from the hotel again. My no-resto-repeat rule flew out the window on this trip!
Rolling home from across the street was effortless - here's the view from my window seat table of the hotel right opposite. Perfect!
