Sorry it's been so long, again, since the last posting. We haven't had Internet connection. At least, I thought I didn't. I tried tonight and found myself connected to someones network in the neighborhood. The neighborhood being a small village, up the mountain overlooking the Thunersee in Switzerland. We are staying near the Interlaken area of the Alp foothills or mountains. We picked Ken and Linda up on Wednesday and drove about an hour and a half to our first two nights stay. We took the cable car up Brienz Rothorn on Thursday and from there we hiked to the summit. The last two pictures show us hiking and the view from the summit. The third pic, Jim took of one of the mountain goats or Ibix that live on this mountain. There were about 25 of them grazing near the path. The picture of me bending over is actually me trying to climb up the mountain---a very narrow path with no guard rail. The first picture is of Jim and Linda on our hike today. Another cable car and another hike--absolutely, breathtaking scenery. Best, by far, so far on the trip. The second picture is from our bedroom at the B&B where we are staying for 3 nights. Ken and Linda are in another B&B down the mountain. This is a very popular tourist spot and there were just no other rooms available. Tomorrow is a trip and hike to a waterfall--will try and post more pics tomorrow night. Just got off of Skype with Jen and John. Jeff and family are away for the weekend, so we can't talk to them today. We all are bushed from all this exercise and fresh air--but what a nice tired. Can't believe we are here.
