We’re off to Mürren to take Christmas presents for the Zwicky kids. They, and their mum Beanie met us at the station and directed us up the hill to the sports centre for a ‘surprise’. The kids were clearly very excited, and we soon found out why.
A new attraction at the sports centre is virtual snowball fighting. You wear 3D goggles and enter a computer generated ‘world’. It looks like this.

In this environment we can have a snowball fight. Snowballs are thrown using hand controllers. It’s quite immersive, and you soon forget that none of it is real. Here’s what we look like to the outside world.

Great fun, and quite exhausting! Aliena and Val threw the most accurate snowballs and won the competition.

Next, we’re off to the Chinese restaurant. We had a lovely meal, but of course the girls were looking forward to their presents. Aliena.

And Larina.

A very good evening out. This morning the weather was absolutely glorious, as long as you live above about 1100 metres.

There’s a new restaurant in Wengen serving steaks and lots of other good stuff. We’ll give it a try later.
