the one about badrul and switzerland...


beautiful spring...

i'm always fond of switzerland... to me, switzerland is one of the most beautiful country in the world, dengan banjaran alps... big huge lake... beautiful weather and wonderful people... no wonder i wanted to go back to switzerland lepas my first big europe trip in 2001/2002...

so, when jasmin's boyfriend, peter, offer a place to stay, and at the same time ada mas fair, i terus jer agree to go... but of course, we want to choose the right time... i don't want to go in the summer because nanti cuaca dia lebih kurang malaysia jer... so, we plan to go in spring... sebenarnya masa mas fair tuh pun we were still nak decide mana nak pergi because ada jugak chance nak pergi new zealand, but i guess new zealand can wait...


dekat lawn rumah peter...

peter's house memang best... macam 'istana' dalam taman... in fact, ada banyak pokok buah-buahan macam apple, grapes, peach etc tapi since kita pergi tuh masih spring, belum ada yang berbuah lagi lah... hahahaha... we took a lot of pictures... gambar dalam rumah peter, tapi macam tak sesuai jer kan nak letak kat sini sebab gambar dalam rumah tuh kira macam invade the privacy lah pulak kan... but our room memang best, ada balcony looking out to the garden... flowers were everywhere... lawa sangat-sangat...


breakfast kat garden...

we had breakfast kat garden, either next to the kitchen macam dalam gambar kat atas nih, atau dekat lawn where it has beautiful gazebo with grapes tree kat tiang-tiang dia... i'm sure it is so beautiful during summer...


shonn, me, jas, peter and levin...

i wanted to put as much pictures as possible, tapi nak upload gambar-gambar nih, mak datuk, lamanyer... oh, if you're wondering, siapa that good looking young man, nama dia levin and he is peter's nephew... sorry girls, he's still under age.. hahahhaa...


bernn, ibu negara switzerland...

we were in zurich, switzerland for about 16 days... banyak jugaklah tempat yang kita orang pergi... lucerne, bernn, interlaken dan banyak tempat lagih yang i lupa nama dia... we also cross-over to germany, but lupa pulak nama tempat tuh... all i can remember was, i beli one t-shirt yang tulis 'fbi' for only 2 euro (about 9 ringgit) made of germany... hahahaha...


baru habis shopping... muka senyum, tapi poket perit... hihihihi...

we do a lot of other activities too... naik boat dengan kawan peter, stephan... shopping... panjat bukit dengan family peter's brother... shopping, naik alps... shopping... clubbing... shopping... bbq... shopping... naik ferry... shopping... hahahaha...


little house on the prairie?...

one thing that really amazed me, depa semua nih macam lepak jer... macam tak kerja jer... kita yang tourist nih logic lah keluar jalan-jalan, but if you look at them, kita orang jalan kat taman-taman, we can see them sun-bathing lah, main football lah, lepak-lepak lah... and that was in the afternoon on a weekday... memang seronok betul dia orang nih... another thing yang memang superb was the public transportation... senang jer for everybody to use it, even for us, the tourist...


macam citer hindustan kan... hahahaha...

flowers jangan cakap lah... everywhere dan macam-macam jenis... even wild flowers pun cantik-cantik... banyak jugaklah gambar-gambar ala hindustan, tapi taknak lah letak kat sinih... in fact, yang kat atas tuh pun dah ramai yang gelak kan... hahahaha...


rumah peter's brother...

i think the highlight of my journey to zurich, switzerland, was the visit to peter's brother... the house is situated at this beautiful quiet valley and we had such a wonderful time there... they were such a wonderful people... we had cheese fondue, which i don't really like, but they also have something 'special' in store for all of us... biarlah ianya menjadi kenangan peribadi... hahahhaha....


mount pilatus, lucerne...

we've been to lucerne before and we've been up on the mountain, but it was a different mountain... mount rigis... so we decided to go up to the highest one, which is mount pilatus... it was raining heavily that day, so memang basah kuyuplah... i nih memang ada height phobia, so masa naik cable car tuh kecut perut jugaklah... but the view on top of the mountain was worth it!


on top of mount pilatus... snow...best nyer...

bayangkan, walaupun dah spring, tapi on top of mount pilatus masih lagih ada snow... sejuk but what an experience... kudsia macam biasalah, tak tahan sejuk sebab dia tak bawak jacket tebal, so she spent her time in the restaurant baca novel... oh, by the way, kudsia joins us about a week later, since she was on her way to paris to see her aunt...


kambing gurun?...

we saw these kelompok of 'kambing' on our way down from mount pilatus... i remember someone mentioned its name but i can't recall it... takpalah, just anggap macam kambing gurun sudah lah sebab tanduk dia lebih kurang jer... hahahahhaa...


shonn, kuds and me... turun from mount pilatus...

masa turun from mount pilatus, we opted for train... memang curam giler... but i rather naik train and have both my feet on the ground, daripada naik cable car again... hahahhaa... tak sanggup oooiiii...


lake lucerne...

from the edge of the mountain, we took a ferry to lucerne city... change scenery sikit kan... it was beautiful walaupun sejuk sangat...


dalam ferry kat lake lucerne...

i really enjoyed my trip to switzerland... memang sesuatu yang menyeronokkan... apatah lagi kalau you pergi dengan kawan-kawan rapat... kalau boleh, memang nak letak banyak gambar lagih, but then, takpalah... maybe next time you can have a look at my albums... baru puas hati...


the alps... beautiful kan...

next year, insyaallah, dalam perancangan nak pergi new zealand pulak... i've heard so much about new zealand too... in fact, some of my friends cakap it is as beautiful as switzerland... mana tau kot-kot dapat jumpa 'lord of the ring'...
