3rd Day

We drove up to Engelbert valley. From here we take a cable car ride to the breathtaking panorama at Mt. Titlis, 3020m above sea level. From the Ice Flyer chairlift, we could view the glacier crevasses.

It wasn’t as cold as I expected. Being up here makes me feel very very far from Malaysia. Here I am the foreigner.
