Shaken not Stirred at Schilthorn!

We have just come back down to earth after a fantastic trip in a cable car to the 10,000ft summit of the Schilthorn, which was the film location for the James Bond film, On Her Majesty's Secret Service. The weather was perfect, after days and days of rain we woke before sunrise to frost and a clear starry sky and the view from the summit was unbelievable - 360º panorama over more than 200 mountain peaks including the Eiger and Jungfrau, Mont-Blanc and right over to the Black Forest in Germany. After taking a few thousand pictures we spoilt ourselves to a '007 breakfast' in the world famous Piz Gloria revolving restaurant (the last time I was in a spinning restaurant I'd had 8 pints of Guinness-Rob) - for £10 each we got to help ourselves to a brilliant buffet breakfast (and had our first bacon and sausages since leaving home!) and got a massive pot of coffee and a glass of champagne while we took in the amazing view. Wow!
