Interlaken (Day 14)

This morning we went to the grocery store and picked up some cereal and milk among other things!  First time that breakfast wasn’t bread!  After breakfast we walked around Interlaken just exploring the town.  It’s such a beautiful place, and the people are SO nice.  We went back to the hostel, and ate some microwaveable spaghetti bolognese before heading out for our CANYONING adventure.  If you don’t know what canyoning is let us tell you.  We got all dressed up in wetsuits, lifejackets, and helmets and drove 20 minutes up a canyon.  Our group was prepped about the crazy stuff we’d be doing in the water, then we were off.  It’s a mix of rapelling, sliding, and jumping through the rapids flowing through a narrow canyon.  It was INTENSE!  We had so much fun.  We will be sure to post pictures when we get back to Colorado.  We got a cd full of snapshots.  By the time we got back, we were EXHAUSTED.  We took showers and an hour nap.  We decided to go grab a drink before dinner at an outdoor cafe.  We then headed to the bar under our hostel for some DELICIOUS ribs and wings while watching the World Cup.  Tomorrow we’re going to go hiking up in the mountains!
