Today we all bundled into the car and headed to a spot on top of one of the local mountains called "Pleiades".
After heading to the appropriate train station to catch a little one car "train" to our destination we started heading uphill.
Beautiful countryside and views as we went up, up, up...
At the top there were a bunch of astronomical exhibits - showing the distance between planets, demonstrating solar eclipses, giving a general idea of our galaxy in relation to other galaxies. Fun.
There were also some great views from the top...
We also stopped for lunch at a restaurant up on the top - Paula and I had the daily special (Arctic Char and vegetable risotto), Ahriel ordered the mushroom risotto, Teo with the chicken nuggets and french fries, and Nicole had the goat cheese salad. Everything was delicious and received high marks from all of us!
Then back down to the base of the mountain where there was a special train exhibit including this great little steam engine!
