We caught an earlier train this morning and had a good cruise around above Scheidegg. The little bar on the way home has been advertising a beach party, so we popped in to have a look. There’s a band playing; they’re called The Bermudas.
Switzerland doesn’t have any beaches of course, so maybe the title of the event was a bit of wishful thinking. The views from the bar are some of the very best however, and there were lots of deck chairs.
Had a good ski this morning down to Grindelwald, and this afternoon Val and Sally went to Wengernalp for a drink.
Paul and I went skiing. He’s doing well.
Busy in Rocks this afternoon, end of the week so everyone enjoyed a beer or two.
Paul & Sally arrived yesterday afternoon. Paul hasn’t skied for a few years so we popped up to Wengernalp for a refresher.
No problem at all, and this afternoon we were cruising down Männlichen enjoying the sunshine. It’s a beautiful day.
Minus 8 at breakfast time today, but blue skies and sunshine. Up we go. Here’s Val on Wixi.
Very windy up at the Jungfraujoch. Fortunately we don’t ski up there at this time of year.
Lovely views from Salzegg.
Quiz time last night, and we had a big turn-out with 9 teams. We employed our usual tactic and assembled as big a team as we could, and at last we got back to our winning ways.
From left to right we have Erin, myself, Sian, Rosanna, Ozzie and Val. Prosecco all round.
While we were racking our brains in Rocks it started snowing outside, and this continued all night and most of today. Hardly anyone went skiing, and those who did were mostly back in the village by lunchtime. Later this afternoon we had a few glimpses of sunlight down here, but it stayed murky and cold up the mountain.
It’s sunny but very cold this morning, so we head over to Murren which faces the sun early in the day.
Lots of jumpers at a place called Schiltgrat. It’s hard work getting enough lift from the canopy.
When the sun disappears around the mountain the temperature takes a dive. Cruising home at the end of the day.
It was snowing at breakfast time, but the sun put in an appearance for the first time for about a week later on. Up the hill we had a mixture of sun and snow, sometimes both at the same time.
Lovely views when the sun did peep through though.
The Swiss kids are back at school tomorrow, lots of families enjoying the last day of the holiday.
Kids on Bumps lift. There’s usually a race for them on a Sunday.
