Zermatt

The cable car systems here are awesome- we took one from Zermatt all the way up to the "Little Matterhorn" and were treated to incredible views.  There is also an ice cave there- not as big as the one in Hallstatt but was ALL ice over, under, and around. Then more wandering around town checking out more old stuff and lots of expensive stuff. There was a food festival this weekend but I have certainly seen better- still fun to peruse the offerings.
This morning we had to search out fuses as our power converter blew one and fortunately found some before it's time to board the choo- choo to head for our Swiss hikes. As it is likely we won't have stores available that would carry such it was a relief to take care of it here. It's also likely we won't have Internet connections for a few days so may not see entries for awhile. The weather gods have continued to smile on us and I hope that continues for our hikes. Looking forward to getting into the countryside again.
