It rained all day yesterday, so today we were determined to get out of the house for some fresh air. We met Ali and popped over to Mürren. The new trains are very nice.

The system of cable cars that get us up to the Schilthorn above the village is being completely rebuilt. The new cabins are already being tested on the section that comes up from Stechelberg in the valley.

Here is the departure point for the middle section that goes up to Birg. The old cable car station (right of picture) are is still in use at the moment.

Despite the cold weather and the fog, it was a nice day out. Three cows have appeared in the little meadow by our house.

They’ll only be here until they’ve eaten all the grass.
