We have to wear masks in the dorfstrasse (main street) now, and there are people here to enforce it.

This is the same in all the ski villages.

Up at Scheidegg this morning it was very quiet. Very few people are skiing, but Val still did her lesson.

At 11.02 this morning the sun reached its highest point, though we couldn’t see it through the clouds, and that marks the winter solstice. Starting tomorrow, the days begin to get longer again.

Later on we had a nice lunch at the Eiger whilst we watched the ski racing on the telly. Val swapped her ski pass for the (much cheaper) ski instructor version, which resulted in a handy refund.
