Wengen or Bust!



We made it! 
Trains, Planes, Buses, Tram and the final hike to the hotel


Eiger, Monch, and Junfrau in all their glory.





It is quite the hike from the tram to the hotel. 


                                                   But nothing a good pizza could not cure.
                                               


                           Off to the slopes, needed a partner, found one that would not complain or go the                                                    wrong way. Perfect. Oh yea Kirk had meetings.
                                                           
                                                                       

The perfect lunch, and extra energy for those exhausting runs.


Kirk meet me at the top. This avoided any unnecessary broken bones.









Ok now lets see if I can make it down the mountain in one piece. 





The weather was perfect, skied the whole mountain.  Only managed 3 days of skiing this year but that was enough.  Wish I could do this more often but the bus, train, plane, and tram to get here is a little much. 



Good friends beer and fondue, perfect ending. 



Cheers!

Normandy

 Operation Overlord  We planted an American flag on the beach. We landed at Normandy at sun rise. We had a much more comfortable landing exiting the landing craft than they did on D Day. Nice comfortable ferry. Left at midnight and landed a 7:00.                                                  Omaha Beach, American Memorial                   We rented a car and headed to Juno Beach which is the Canadian landing beach. We stayed in a lovely Air B&B at Courseulles- sur-Mer  on the beach with a sunset/sunrise view.   We visited most of the D-Day landing beaches. Each had memorials and museums for each country that participated. The Canadian had an Imax which you entered a landing craft and the movie above showed what it looked like if you were landing on ...

Ionian Sea

                   Greece Like you have never seen it before! Our daily schedule was so relaxed, stress seemed to float away. Up early to watch the sunrise over the majestic mountains of |the Ionian Sea.                                           Yogurt and fruit for breakfast with a coo off swim.                                 Then power to a secluded beach/island preferably with a Tiki Bar.                                     Bortoletto /Lockwood Greek salad with the real Italian seasoning.   Then we would wait for the wind to come up around 3 and have a great sail to the next taverna.  ...
