You guessed it perfectly. And what a great place to get some hot soup and some bread! I'll admit that I love you part of the world. I first hiked above First in 1974.

Hey Ricardo, I'll go check your gallery. Lucky you to live in such a beautiful, enchanting place. I could hike for many weeks out of Grindelwald and never be bored. I was surprised at how cold and snowy it was at the higher altitudes when I was there in June.

Ah, so this was where the von Trapp family fled for six years as World War II was coming to an end and the Nazis were after Captain von Trapp to become a Nazi... *dreamy look* I love The Sound of Music, as you can tell.

I was surely pleased to find this place after getting through a snow shower and hip deep snow drifts in some places. One bowl of hearty soup and some bread put me back in shape for the rest of the day.

Wow. I love this. I love how the red from the flag is echoed in the table cloths, and how those elements work as a frame for the mountains. Really well composed.

Hey, Larry, thanks for that generous comment. I must watch my grammar when writing to a former prof!! How's the little one? Any new quotable quotes lately?

Seeing this view has just reminded me that I went to Grindlewald some years ago, its an incredible place. I love this shot for its simplicity.

I go back whenever I can to hike in this part of the world. It never disappoints, even when the weather is drippy, as it was this time.
