Day 10 : June 16, 2008 (Monday) - Pisa to Switzerland - Laily Mariana's FotoPage - lailymus

Hari ke 10

8.00 pagi : breakfast roti dan lauk kurma semalam.. Tapi, aku mcm biasa arr mesti carik nasik punyer... sejuk pun bedal jerk....

9.30 pagi : bas mula bergerak... Perjalanan yang sungguh panjang... Dah tido, bangun semula then tido balik, then bangun pun masih tak sampai sampai lagi.... Nak tau berapa jam?.... 9.30 pagi bertolak dari Pisa sampai ke Switzerland jam 7.30 malam... Ha!!! berapa jam tu?... 10 jam!!!!!....

Tengahari macam biasa berhenti untuk lunch then sambung semula perjalanan...

Yang thrill nyer utk perjalanan hari ini, Udo membuat keputusan untuk tidak menggunakan motorway untuk sampai ke Lauterbrunen, sebaliknya memilih untuk mendaki puncak Jungfrau. Laluan sangat sempit dan berliku-liku... Hairul tidak henti henti melafazkan doa. (Kitorang pun!!!)... Dengan hujan renyai-renyai yang turun tidak berhenti-henti.... Just imagine, di sebelah kanan kita bukit yang penuh dengan glasier dan di kiri pula jurang yang dalam di samping air sungai yang mengalir laju... Sungguh mendebarkan...

Lebih kurang jam 5.15 petang, bas berjaya mendaki Jungfrau sehingga ke paras 2200m. Udo bagi kami masa 10 minit untuk mengambil gambar... Cuaca pada waktu itu sangat sejuk, hujan masih belum berhenti lagi...

Jam 6.30 petang : Sekali lagi Udo berhenti rehat walaupun jarak ke campsite dah tinggal beberapa mile sahaja lagi.... Ini bagi mematuhi peraturan memandu bagi pemandu-pemandu di Eropah. Tapi yang bestnyer, tempat yang Udo berhenti tersangatlah cantiknyer.... Tak terukir dengan kata-kata....

Kalau lihat gambar Amnani di bawah ni, terdapat 2 tasik di tengah-tengah lingkaran Swiss Alps... Tasik pertama yang kami singgah ini diberi nama Lake Brienze atau Brienzersee (dalam Bahasa German)...

Sedikit info mengenai Lake Brienze
Lake Brienz (German: Brienzersee) is a lake just north of the Alps, in the Canton of Berne in Switzerland. The lake took its name from the village Brienz on its northern shore. Interlaken and the villages Matten and Unterseen lie to the south west of the lake. The shores are steep, and there is almost no shallow water in the entire lake.

Lake Brienz is the first lake in which river Aar (German: Aare) expands. When it leaves Lake Brienz, it soon joins Lake Thun.

The lake lies in a deep hollow between the village of Brienz on the east and, on the west, Bönigen, close to Interlaken. Its length is about 9 miles, its width 1½ miles, and its maximum depth 856 feet, while its area is 11½ square miles, and the surface is 564 metres (1,850 ft) above the sea-level. On the south shore are the Giessbach Falls and the hamlet of Iseltwald. On the north shore are a few small villages. The character of the lake is gloomy and sad as compared with its neighbour, that of Thun. Its chief affluent is the Lütschine (flowing from the valleys of Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen).

The lake is poor in nutritients, and consequently fishing is not very important. Nevertheless, in 2001 10,000 kg fish were caught. There have been passenger ships on the lake since 1839. The ships are operated by BLS Lötschbergbahn, the local railway company. There are five passenger ships on the lake.

Selepas berhenti lebih kurang 20minit, perjalanan diteruskan semula.

7.30 malam : tiba di campsite. Hujan turun semakin lebat...

9.30 malam : dinner (mee kari with tuna)
