The most beautiful sight I have ever seen ..... was a field of wildflowers growing in front of a glacier in the Swiss Alps. Seriously.
To get there: Fly (or drive if you're already in Europe) to Bern, the capital of Switzerland. From there, take a train to Interlaken, then take a bus to Lauterbrunnen, then take a cable car 1000 feet up the side of a mountain to a teeny tiny town called Gimmelwald. Then, hike up the side of the mountain for 1 1/2 hours until you reach the Kilchbalm glacier. The most beautiful place on earth. Miles away from civilization, surrounded by mountains and flowers and wildlife and a creek and ..... god it was gorgeous.
If heaven isn't what it's cracked up to be, send me back to Kilchbalm.
Mrs Vertigo, I can relate to your kid-phobia! I have that too. Scary little monsters, aren't they? I think we must be long-lost twins or something, 'cause every time you post something about yourself, I'm like "Hey, that's ME!"
Sorry 'bout answering this thread so late, but I was gone this weekend.
