Going up our cogwheel train to Leysin. Below - priest on stilts walking with red staff. Wierd,
Oldest playable organ in the world, We had a concert by a french lady who can play it. Very difficult, small keys, can't use thumbs, octaves are not laid in DO-RE-MI order.
I wrote a 45 minute blog about our 2nd day and LOST IT. Too bad not doing it again. I am climbing up the St. Bernard Pass on Monday so I won't blog for awhile. Wish me luck. snow, 40% incline, monks feeding us soup, and St. Bernard slobbering. Glad I b rought my slippers, if you don';t bring any, you have to wear the ones they have that travellers have been wearing for 100 years. Sick.
Sad you lost your post. Laughing about the hundred year old slippers. Glad you brought your own...those wart viruses are pesky to get rid of ;)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you are having a great time...bleeding feet aside. I hope you have time to do some sketching, can't wait to see them. Hope you brought some hand sanitizer for the dog drool - it reminded me of the Archer's dog growing up, he was huge! Eat some lovely Swiss chocolate for me:)
