FollowI had to shovel the snow off our steps last night when we got home from the quiz (we were 4th, thanks for asking). This morning it was still snowing. After breakfast a few shafts of sunlight began to peep through the clouds.
It looks like the weather is improving so up the hill we go. At Scheidegg there are not many people about, and there’s no scenery at all.
We start by skiing down the hill – maybe we can get under the cloud. This works, but it’s pretty dark!
We did get a few tantalising bright spots.
Ok so we’ll go high and perhaps we can get above the cloud. Up the Lauberhorn we go, and yay!
The problem is that, as you can see from the photo, we are only a hundred metres above the cloud. We are about eleven hundred metres above the village. We stand at the top for a few minutes enjoying the sunshine, before Val sets off into the gloom.
The clouds came and went on the way down and we actually had a pretty good descent. Tonight we’re going to Andrew and Hayley’s for dinner, which will be lovely.
