We drive to Llanberis in the Snowdonia National Park, where we take the Snowdon Mountain Railway to the top of Mount Snowdon. At 1,085 metres, it is the highest peak in Wales and is the focal point of the national park.A beautiful ride up with views of beautiful mountains. The summit can also be reached on foot and many do. From the train, we see entire hordes making the trek up, which takes about 3-4 hours.

After breakfast we take the bus and metro to Landungsbrücke. From there we take the ferry to the Elbphilharmonie. This concert hall was built on top of a former warehouse on the quay of the Elbe. The building was put into use in 2017 after many delays and cost overruns. The building contains two concert halls, restaurants, apartments, a hotel and a parking garage. At 37 meters there is a viewing platform, the plaza. Tickets for a concert are sold out more than a year in advance, so that is not an option today.
In Yosemite we first look at the Tunnel View. No tunnel vision, but a viewpoint at the entrance of a tunnel through a mountain. The view over the valley is beautiful, with the El Capitan mountain in the middle. We drive down and arrive at the Upper Yosemite waterfall. Also very beautiful. Up close you get wet from the spray water and the swirling river.
