A sheer joy to look at, this picture! I only saw the paraglider when I read your comment though... I have some happy photographic memories of them.

Thanks for taking a look, and thanks for the ! (Next summer I will be back in Switzerland, and, at long last, I plan to do some paragliding. I'll let you know if it is safe. And if it really isn't...I may not let you know. )

I can definitely see possibilities. What's more, one faculty member at our shop is married to a fellow who actually does have a family home in this enchanting place.

GeraldWinslow In reply to cycoze [2008-07-19 13:58:24 +0000 UTC]

Hi Cy. Your question makes me smile because I took this at the end of my hike. I started in Murren and went up for most of the day, then I looped back and this was near the end. So...the answer is Yes. And thanks for looking and for asking.

Wow! don't know if I would have noticed the paraglider if you hadn't pointed it out . I was to busy looking at the town!

The paraglider was busy looking at the town too! (It isn't often that you can look that far down on a paraglider. )
