Beautiful picture, Meg. I think I recognize the setting as Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland, near Interlaken.
Some years ago my wife Susan (second row of pictures) and I hiked through the area along a trail
past the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau (left to right in the upper right photo) to a Berghotel on the Spitzhorn
(not to be confused with the Schilthorn). We dodged bulls on the way with our orange backpacks and
had a wonderfully satisfying meat-and-potatoes meal that evening. We had made it--just before nightfall.


This couple traveled much of the same territory.

Wonderful trip! I believe you are right about the picture..We took an easier route to see the Alps..We had our teenage children with us, went by train from Bern to Grindelwald..The cable ride once we got there was spectacular..My daughter and husband were on the gondola in front of my son and me..and I could hear her saying . “Take another picture Daddy..It will never be better than this”...all the way up..It was just breathtaking.
