Switzerland

Switzerland is the next place we went. It is such a beautiful country our train ride had some of the most amazing views. This would be a cool country to come and spend a few weeks just doing outdoor recreational stuff. These pictures are actually of each other one looking down and other looking up. This is the town of Bellinzona.















We hiked around Bellinzona for awhile before meeting Jeff at the Varzascas Dam for the Dam jump. You all should recognize this jump from the dam jump in James Bond Golden Eye. After the dam jump we got a ride from Antony the owner of the jump. He was a really nice guy. He wanted to show us a little town south of there he thought was cool so we ended up eating dinner with him and hanging out for awhile. He is in the picture on the right. The other picture is of Jefe's jump.















This is supposedly the second highest jump at like 750 feet or something like an 8 second free fall.
