I think I have glacier burn

I don't have a sunburn, but I'm toasty. We walked up to the foot of a glacier yesterday, crossing more snow than I've seen in years. But it was warm! We were in shorts and t-shirts most of the day.

Do I Hear a Cow Outside?

That's what I asked Mike yesterday morning as soon as I woke up. The answer was "Yes." We arrived in Interlaken, Switzerland, late and drove to our hotel just outside town in the dark. We were afraid the town might be fake mountain town, like Big Bear in California. But the morning proved us wrong. This is the view from our hotel:
