Day 34 - Zermatt (5 lakes in 4 hours)

Ok began our day very late today and left the hostel at about 9:00. Bought the "traditional" holiday lunch on the way to a funicular and then cable car which would lead us to the beginning of today's "loosen muscles walk". (All I wanted to do today was sleep). Today's walk took us past 5 alpine lakes and took us around 4 hours to complete. We saw heaps of flowers, 5 lakes (no der), some tadpoles, lots of other walkers and some spectacular reflections of the Matterhorn. 
Thats the best one i took :D. When got back to Zermatt we ate ice cream and discovered it is the Swiss national day. They were selling actual fire works outside the supermarket and I am listening to them go off as I write this blog. Tonight at ten o'clock there will be a big firework display and we are planning to watch it from our window. Yay!!!!! 
So yeah that was today
