We experienced an unexpected heavy snowstorm during our trip to Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland! Parking was a real challenge as snow covered everything around.What was supposed to be a peaceful scenic visit turned into a wild snowy adventure! Watch till the end for travel tips and real-time experience from the Alps.

Hello and welcome to Shamlas
Mommy. It's been a long time since we've
seen the sun. So we
planned to go on a little trip and set
off.
We are leaving for a very beautiful place. As
you know, I have
posted short videos on many blogs.
We just left for Switzerland. If you look in Switzerland, you'll see that the
SIM card you brought from Germany will
be roaming. If
you look at the data, you'll be amazed. Just by
putting the maps in, the data will arrive in one or two hours and then
burn out. Even
unlimited data will be empty.
If you look at our SIM card, it's O2
.
We have an unlimited plan. But even if you use it, you wo
n't be able to use the data in Switzerland. You
can't map anywhere without internet access.
So what can we do?
This time we came with our Indian SIM card and
recharged it with a few GB of data
. There was a pack in the range of around 2500
. They came with a 5-day validity and
gave me a lot of data. So
we recharged that pack.
If our car is going to Switzerland, we should
buy a troll pass for that car. That's when I
got in the car and drove off with that Swiss
dwarf. We have put up signs at some
stations right outside the gate saying that the vignette is like that
.
This vignette is only available at that station.
Otherwise, you can also purchase online
. We always
buy Specifika at this station.
So we just kept it as a practice.
Whenever we go to Switzerland,
we buy at this station.
If you want a link to this location, I'll come and
mention it in the description.
Look, they mentioned it right here. They
mentioned that this is the station where you can get that kind of toll and
made a symbol to say so. So,
you
can only come and pick up at this station. This
Vignetterak station is
a 2-hour drive from Germany. When you
arrive at this station, it's on the Austrian
border, so it
's like taking a break. We
always say that we'll pick up at this station.
Otherwise, the restrooms at this station
are a little cleaner, so we'll
clean this up. They've
come underground and
are in the restroom area. So
they charge one euro per person.
You've got that ticket,
so
you can get discounts on the things you buy
. So, there's
no need for the children to come and make us pay.
The children can go and come this way. If you
look next to this restroom area, you'll see self-service machines
. We can also
come and purchase our vignette, use our card, and then
go to Switzerland via Austria. So, you have to take the Austrian
vignette and the Swiss vignette
together. So, come on, we'll
go upstairs and get it from the counter. Because
my dad
buys all the snacks anyway, so I might as well pay for
this vignette in addition to paying for the snacks
.
Bathing items are available at this station.
But the price will be a little more than double
. Now, if you come and see that famous bread called butter bread that is
eaten in Germany, it
costs 1 euro in Germany and 3 euros here. Besides that,
all kinds of fruits are available. If Thanni talks like that,
we'll get all the items we need
. It's a bit
more expensive
than the usual places, but since it's on the Austrian border, it's
a bit more expensive
here. If you are watching this video, my fellow citizens, here is
an
important tip: Don't come to Germany and Europe and
ask for coffee.
They only give you strong coffee. That is,
they will tell you if it's an expresso or
not, and then they will give you that strong coffee, no matter how bitter it is
. If you ask for a milk coffee or a cappuccino, you
'll get a coffee like the one you get in our town with milk. They give sugar separately.
So I just bought milk coffee.
3 is 70 cents. If
you are paying the Austrian toll, 10 tax means 10 days
. 12 euros is 40 cents. If you want a
vignette valid for 2 months, it
costs 31 euros, so you can
also buy a one-year one.
Another important detail. I only
found out about it too late. When you
went to the restroom, you would have received a slip, and
if you had looked at the back of that slip, they would
have given you an offer. If you
gave it to the billing area, they would have
reduced 50 cents for each restroom visit from your bill, making a total of 1 euro for
us
. Yes, this is a Swiss vignette, and this is an Austrian vignette, so if you look at it, it would have been 12 euros. If
you buy a Swiss vignette, it will cost 44 euros
. If you only see this Swiss vignette, you
can only get the minimum for one year. We
can't take that 10-day-one-month model, but
we'll stick to our model, like Austria Vignant
. So when our car arrives and
enters Austria and Switzerland, the
automated
system there scans it and doesn't
send any beeps to our car.
Even if you buy the toll here and don't stick it on, you'll still get a ticket at home. If you don't
buy the vignette, we're
leaving from Munich, so we
can go either way. We could have just come together and
taken the Swiss road. I have to
come here, cross Austria, and
go through Switzerland.
What's the problem with this Austrian route to Switzerland? If so,
you have to pay the Austrian toll of 12 euros. It would
be like paying 12 euros extra. But if
we took the route via Switzerland, that would save us 12 euros
. But we will always
take the route to Austria. Because
that's what's comfortable for us.
Driving in Switzerland is
a bit difficult. Even if we go one speeding point
extra, we will still
get a ticket. You have to
drive carefully. So,
we
always go via Austria, saying we'll relax for a while.
Thank you.
Now
we are crossing the Austrian checkpoint. But no one ever checks here
.
They will check the Swiss at times.
Is it there?
As soon as you enter Switzerland, you cross the Austrian toll and
immediately upon reaching the Swiss toll, the
terrain of Switzerland
changes. Everywhere you look, there
are huge, lush green mountains. That's
another level of beauty, Switzerland. So, as soon as
we crossed this terrain, we
felt
like we were in Switzerland
. Now we are crossing our Swiss
tollgate. The general
will check your passport. But I wo
n't check today.
They always check. One day, when I
was crossing the street on a bus, they stopped the bus and
checked it. No one checks today.
So, the entry to Switzerland has been made.
Germany and Austria are all beautiful
. But
as soon as you enter Switzerland, it will be on another level of beauty
. If you've seen Mountain Slam, it's going to
be very, very exciting. Everywhere
you look, there is green grass.
We thought for a long time. What's this, this
Pele comes and changes as soon as he enters
. A very happy feeling,
a beautiful sound is coming. When we were wondering why this town
was so beautiful,
we saw that all the mountains
were at a good height. If
you look at all the houses, they are beautifully built like this
. They must have made all the decorations very
beautiful. Everything
is beautiful in Switzerland. So you'll
know when you watch this video.
We cross this town on the side. Look how beautiful it
is.
There are clouds above these mountains. Because we're going to go to
that town by climbing and descending those mountains
. It will be on another level of
beauty.
Driving in Switzerland is a bit
difficult. Why did they come and
say that the speed limit is 50 now?
So you have to go at 50
. Even if you go to 51, you will
get a fine at home, it will
be automatically scanned. So
what we usually do when we go to Switzerland is
take a high-end car. I don't know much about the automatic
system in Audi, like speed control and cruise
control
. My husband will
pick it up. But I would sit in front and
say, "Go this way, go that way, the speed limit is this way," and watch the pilot work
. So I
know all their troubles. So,
this is how we
will make a statement. Even though it costs a little over 200 yen extra, we
will look for a slightly more intelligent car, such as an advanced car, that has an automated system when renting. So he's going to be
a little stressed out from driving
. If we were looking for a car, we
would rent it from a company like Enterprise. We'll book online,
go directly to the car, and pick it up in the morning
. Like this,
every time
we rent a car, all the sockets
change. So we
have all the cables. Why do we need to
install a GPS in our car?
Only these cables
can do everything from playing music to installing GPS.
Sometimes, Bluetooth
can be connected to something, so we can make it into clothes. If so, we will have
all types of
cables.
Mostly, when a car
comes from behind, if you look in the side mirror of this car, the
light will come on, it will cross and then
turn off immediately. It is a little
useful. My husband
was telling me that this is a bit useless. I
saw that it suddenly changed from green to white.
This morning, there was a snow storm
. And that's because the area
we're going to is specifically for the area where we're going to stay, and the
snow storm is right there in the town where we're going to stay
. It was a bit disappointing when this happened
because we
had been watching it until we left. The weather was so good that even the snowman didn't even come to put it on. The
weather was so good that
Sanniya put it on.
It was a bit disorienting, like a snowstorm,
but you can go and see it. I don't
know how it looks in the video. But when you look at it in person,
all these houses
are very beautiful in this snow. This is
my first time coming to Switzerland to
see snow in these mountains.
Just as green is beautiful, snow
is also very beautiful, but
if you look at my favorite, summer is green, and
Switzerland is refreshing to the eyes and
satisfying to the mind
. Snow is beautiful too,
but we'll see it in a day or two. If you
look further,
Switzerland, which has that green color, was
very beautiful to us. There is road work
going on here. Like this, they
just came to our side and signaled and blocked it
.
We
can only leave this side after all the cars on that side have left.
Even if there were a signal like this in the middle of the road, you would have to drive
here while watching these little signals
. In our town, people generally do
n't do things like this. I have
n't seen it yet.
Look here, 10,
eight, look here,
10 minutes, 10 minutes, I do
n't know, 10 minutes.
If you look at our first place to visit today, Switzerland is the
best tourist spot. It will
be very, very beautiful.
We have already gone to this place. That's why
we had
made our first plan for today. I said, "Let's
go see what this place is like in Snow," and we
left
. If you look, we were
stuck in a snowstorm, unable to find anywhere to park, so
we drove all over this town.
We are going to enter this town. This town is
nothing else. The latter
is Babrunan. If you come and
Google it, saying "Later Paparunan is like that," you'll
get beautiful pictures on another level. Why did I
upload a long video of us earlier? That's the same town we're
going to visit on our snowmobile.
If you look at the snow, it was like this.
This is
a very beautiful small town in the middle of a large mountain range
. But if you look, it's like the snow is covering everything and there's a
little bit of snowstorm going on everywhere
. There was also a bit of
dispointing.
However, we left, saying that we would rather not
look at our snow than just look at it today
. If you
look at the parking lot,
they'll be parked in two or three spots. But here, the snow
is falling, and they've only cleared all the snow from the road
. The
parking area was never cleared.
That's why the parking lot
was showing zero zero. I do
n't know where to park. We can't just leave everything on the side of the road like in our town
. They will
make a doe and take it away. We just
finished a round of hammering the town.
Not all parking lots have parking.
That is, there was a parking space, but it
was impossible to park there because the snow had not been completely cleared. I want to eat the chicken that is in
the blood on the side of the bus where I hang out in Switzerland Black
.
Let's see if it will be like this when the snow comes.
Wouldn't they have cleaned it up? There's
a lot of snow here, but someone has stopped and taken it away. It's
hard to stop and take it anywhere. There was no parking anywhere, so we
parked at the ropeway that goes to the village. We
came here and parked a car, but there
was a little bit of snow clearing there, so we
planned to park there
. Because there's so much snow that there's
no room to even stop and think
. This kind of parking
cruelty only happens in this town. Would we have
gone without seeing a place in our town that didn't have parking? In this town, there was
no parking, so we
stood outside and made a video like this
. Because there is no parking in town
. Even if we walked, we would have covered many kilometers
. So, not knowing what to do,
we spent a while playing outside without parking
. Somehow we found a parking lot
. This
is not a place to come and park regularly.
If you want a place with this park plot, I'll come and
put it in the description.
If you're going to Buffalo later, save this parking
location. We arrived here, parked at
this parking location, which seemed like a hidden spot, and
started walking into town. It's a good snow
blower. We don't wear any jackets
. Because even
though there was a snowstorm,
if you looked at our weather, it was 10 degrees. If you
saw the dress we wore for 10 degrees, it was a little thick.
Some people commented on the video saying, "You
only wear one layer of clothes like this, isn't it cold in the snow?" If you saw the pants I
wore, I bought them
from Shein. They have a
good thick layer, a fleece lining, and the
same top. If you saw the top, it has a
good thick layer. So, when you wear one layer like this, our fleece lining can withstand temperatures up to 10 degrees. Six 15 is not called here. If you saw this lantern fence, there is an iconic photo spot. Everyone takes photos there. It is very beautiful.
Needless to say,
we missed that place last time we came
. We drove all over
town, not knowing how to get to that spot
. So this time
my husband came and
found the right spot and set it up.
We're going to leave just after looking at that spot. Because it's already
midnight. We came and spent
time at the train station
today. So
the plan is to just check in later and then leave.
But if you look at the path to that spot, it's like
this, and it's
terribly slippery.
If you've seen all our shoes, they're summer shoes. We arrived at
Snow and were not ready
. This is the spot where the
church is located behind, and it looks very beautiful.
Many people come to this place with its water fountains and
take videos and photos of them walking around.
Needless to say, when it's green, it's even more beautiful
. I had to
pay 70 euros to buy these shoes. I
understand why my dad said that someone would come to Switzerland and buy them. I understand why you ask. Because if you
look at all the work, it's better to buy them here than in Germany, where there are double and triple taxes.
But
it's a situation where I have to buy them here. Even if my
dad had come wearing regular shoes, it wouldn't have mattered.
Even if he had come wearing a
bad pair of running shoes that he had at home, he would have put them on. The
snow
would get in, the water would get in, and it would be
slippery. So we left them in
a hurry in the morning. So they
had to come and buy shoes.
Because we're going to be here for the next five days of war
. They say they can't manage with this shoe
. We heard that Switzerland
is famous for its cheese
. But they came and
said they would only be available after 6:00. We are leaving. It
's good, the coffee is delicious. If you
want, like I said before, this
Park Flats is a great location to come and
save. If you want to be a
regular, come to Park Flats and you won't
find a spot, then we
can park here
. It was like a private parking lot. What's more, they
filled out our details and
set the price based on the trust we had in them for how long we would park. Put it in our pouch and
drop it off at the blocks there. You can come here and park for a day or even
a week
.
They should have told me the price. So,
you should stop and put the money in this cover and
put it in this one. No one will come and
check.
Everyone, even the letter, tell me, "
Boy,
if you see the road that goes through Interlaken, they have built this bridge over this lake.
If you see,
the water is all the way down. Look,
we have gone over this lake." It
was very nice when we left,
but I don't know how you can tell from the video that when
the flood came, there was no
water on the road, and
now there was snow in Pune, so
if you look at it, it
started to get really cold around six o'clock.
So we can't spend too much time outside
. We left
without it, and the tire we had brought with us from traveling was still there
. It suddenly
snowed, suddenly the sun shone,
suddenly it
was cloudy. The weather was a bit
different from town to town. When Lotter Onan arrives,
there is complete snow.
But
if you look at the place we were staying in, there was only
snow. The same goes for that side of the mountain, but there's
no snow.
We saw three such weather conditions on this trip.
If you just drop it off,
you can bring it back. This owner
came and hid the music in that locker. The
line arrived and we sent a
message, so we checked in ourselves and
came in. It's
cold because there's a snow bank inside.
As soon as it was done, the owner himself came and explained everything
. They told me everything, like how to turn this on and
how to turn on the stove
. We turned on the fireplace as soon as we arrived
. It's so cold because of the snow
. If you look at the floor, it
's all covered in chips. That's why
when we go on trips, we always bring a pair of socks
. Because we didn't
bring our slippers, we
'll just walk around in those socks.
Will this come from Surla? It came and
we were eating it the next morning
. The day before yesterday, I had
made and brought some idlis. Because
we were tired and did
n't want to cook, we just
ate idlis. This is what I made the next morning with the
leftover idli,
made it into idli soup and made a little pasta for
my dad. If
you look at the name of the town where we were staying, Fruity Gun is a very good
name. This is how it was in this
town of Snow. It was a little mild, but there was
more snow here than there was later,
but it took two days for the snow to melt
.
This morning, we are
going to a lake called Ostinancy, when the water level drops to 6
. This is a very famous place in Switzerland, and
many tourists come here. It
will be a good meeting.
We are going to that place today. If you
look at the parking lot,
they'll say there are only eight spaces. Okay,
we're waiting to park here. Every tourist
spot will mention whether there are any free places like this
or not.
After that, you
just need to go to the parking lot.
Usually, before going somewhere, you have to
pre-book everything in this town
. Today we
made that mistake. What if the cable
car is closed until May 10th?
We came
in April, we thought it was closed because of the snow, but they
said it was closed and said this is the
most popular place, so they
only open in the summer. If
you see these bubbles in a lot of places like that, it's
time for a spec. So
we don't know what to do.
We missed this little thing. And since there
was a snow bank here, I
must have checked out another one
. I don't know how, I don't
know what the tire is. As soon as we lay down, we left without checking to see if this
cable car was a part of it
. So it's
a situation where you can't leave this place even if you come
. You
can't see it that way. If you want, you can hike up to the top and
see the lake. But since it's the
off-season, there aren't many crowds.
Plus, since the cable car was closed,
another
Indian, like us, had come to see it and
left without knowing what to do.
Okay, let's spend some time here after we arrived at this place.
We
walked around and saw what was there, if there was
anything we could do, or
sit down somewhere, and
went to see if we could play for a while. Since the snow bank had
only been there for a day, a lot of snow
had accumulated. It
was so beautiful to look at.
Say hi, Varya.
Don't tell me,
we'll take all the goods like a small train, like a small train, and
take a car like that, and the train will go at
a specific time,
like a big
train. It's beautiful, isn't it?
You have a great time behind that house. Look
at the stalls, they say how beautiful this town
is.
The way they build it is very beautiful, these
houses. So, since we
couldn't see this attraction today, we
changed our plans and went to see a cave
. That's
not in our plan, as we see it today.
So, we had no other choice today, so we
decided to change our plans and head to Cave Bath, and we set off.
This trip is going to be very relaxing
. Because if you
look at all the places we go from Fruity Gun, it's 20
minutes, 10 minutes, and that's the distance
we're going to take this time. It's
not like I've traveled very far. Has there been
snow all this time? If
you look at this terrain now, the snow has
gradually started to fall here and there. If you
look at the places we went to, everything
is completely green and the sun and snow have
disappeared. If you've seen a lot of me in this video, I
've added traveling clips. I will delete all the
clips that go into the car, like travel clips
. So
I've added a lot to this video.
Tell us if you enjoyed all these clips and
share them in the comments. So if you
watch everything in the next video, I'm wondering if I should
cut down on all the clips that go into this travel car.
Thanks for watching.
