Chffing down
So today I acheived most of the things that defeated me yesterday. I have had a key cut so I get use our ski locker. It may have cost 12.50CHF (that would be Swiss Francs or Chuffs as they are know here) but I weighed up the other option of lugging ski kit to apartment door, hoping someone has left me a key before trekking downstairs and up again all season.

A nice gentle start on the slopes

Interlaken. Harder Kulm Mountain
... you a complemantory glass of wine and some water. We decided to have a coffee and cake in the restaurant ( yes they have one of course ) instead. Met someone from Oz and also a couple of people from the UK. A lovely trip to the top.
