Thursday, March 16th:
This was quite possibly my favorite day! We started off going to the Lucerne train station where our paragliding instructor, Zacharias, picked us up. From there he drove us to where we would be paragliding. I was super nervous, I'm not gonna lie, but it was AMAZING!!! So happy we did it. Poor Felicia, up until a few hours before we had her convinced we were jumping off alone, without any instructor:) She was happy to know we would be tandem jumping with professionals! And they were great, very professional, funny and super nice. They even drove us up to Mt. Titlis after we were done jumping. Saved us the pain of trying to figure out how to get up there.
After paragliding we spent a few hours at Mt. Titlis. We went sledding, went on the Titlis Cliff Walk, Europe's highest suspension bridge, visited the ice caves, rode over a glacier on the sky lift and just had the most amazing time. It was a gorgeous day, we couldn't have planned it better! From there we went back to Lucerne, walked to town for a bit and went to see the Lions. Then we took the train to Zurich. We got there a little later than planned, so we went to our hotel to drop off our stuff. We set out to find some Lindt chocolate, but everything was closed. Since we missed our first night in Zurich due to stupid weather, we rescheduled our fondue dinner to that night. It was a long day. As we were hunting for chocolate we walked the city and then went back to the hotel to pack up and get ready to head home the next morning.
