There was a piste machine smoothing the snow on the football pitch the other day, which was hard to understand as it’s completely flat – you can’t possibly ski on it. It turns out that the pitch is being used as an overflow meeting place for the kids. The Swiss Ski School have around 500 children in lessons this week.

It was snowing lightly in the village at breakfast time, and it’s much colder. Up at Scheidegg it’s very different to yesterday.

It’s windy and the snow is heavier. Far fewer skiers today.
Uptown Lights at the Caprice later.
