Mürren

And that was Alicia Samson, as I said.

Now, if you continue down the Lauterbrunnen Valley, you'll get to Lauterbrunnen itself, and a little further on, there's a cable car at Stechelberg, which will take you up to Mürren and further on to the Schilthorn.

And all these locations have James Bond 007 connections.

If you watch the George Lazenby Bond movie, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, you will spy the Lauterbrunnen train station and the village of Mürren, not to mention Schilthorn, where, of course, now you'll find a Bond museum and, rather excitedly, a rotating restaurant.

It rotates very slowly, but it's great to sit there and watch the scenery go by.

Maybe Tracey Davidson knew this when she wrote her poem for us.

[smacks lips] And so in Lauterbrunnen, [sighs] there's the valley, and I know you've stayed there before, but you stayed in different towns than I did.

I, I looked at the choice between staying in either Wengen or Mürren.

Mürren's a little bit higher up.

I think it has better views because it looks directly across at the Eiger and the Jungfrau and the Mönch, however you pronounce that one.

I think Mönch.

I went with some, with my friends to Interlaken and stayed in Interlaken, and then did some activities up in the valley.

Had really bad weather unfortunately that trip, so it just left me wanting to come back.

And then my wife and I back- backpacked through Europe, uh, right after we got married and, and stopped in here and stayed in Gimmelwald, which is on the Mürren side.

Lauterbrunnen Valley.

Explore the valley and use its mountain connections to reach trails around Wangen and Murren.

The hike I remember most was at Skynage Platte.

The train ride up from Wilderswil was an experience in itself.

We got back to Lauterbrunnen at around 2:00, and then it started to rain, so this is where Jamal was saying we should have brought our umbrellas.

We didn't have them, and it started to rain, so it canceled our plans to visit Mürren, which is one of the car-free villages.

We were gonna do a hike there, so-

Which you have to take a gondola from Lauterbrunnen, so again, another place where you gotta go in a gondola.

Jungfrau, fantastic, uh, area.

I've been out skiing out there a few times before, uh, Mürren and Wengen.

And did you try the new Eiger Express lift while you were there?

Yes.
