The mountains here are sure lovely. You don’t get too see this in America, unless you’re in a cold place. All these snow-capped mountains.

Now, we’re riding a train! It was really exciting because The windows can be pulled down so fresh air! And that we can take photos of the scenario in a clearer view.

Another snow capped mountain. This is one of the best shots I’ve got.

We passed by waterfalls.

Went up a hill.

Passed by this river.

And is about to go in a cave.

to go out of the cave to see this wonderful view. The city below and the snow-capped mountains above.

And tons of group of trees like this. The moment I saw this, it reminded me of Twilight for some reason and the setting of where the music video of Decoded by Paramore was recorded which was one of the soundtracks of Twilight. I immediately took a photo of it. 

People who were also in the same train couldn’t stop looking forward. But I decided to look back and saw this magnificent view of the mountain. In life, looking back at memories or what you’ve been through makes you rekindle those memories and makes you who you are now. Lol

Look at the snow! It seems really near.

And now the snow is right in front of us! But before we were able to see this, we went inside a dark cave and once we got out was this view. Really astonishing.
