Männlichen
One day we were at the top of Männlichen first thing in the morning and
stopped for coffee. This lady and her two small children were sitting at the
outside table. She was having a cup of coffee and the kids were sharing an
incredible looking piece of chocolate cake. When we went in for
coffee, everyone in our group had a piece of cake. One does not attend
Ski
Swiss merely to ski!
When we come back out, the lady was collecting up her kids for a picture. A
split second after I snapped this shot, one of them decided that he really
didn't want to be sitting on the sled with his sibling and would rather be with
Mom. No amount of pleading would calm him, so I think she only got a shot of
one of the kids on the sled.

Grund
The train station at Grund is a welcome sight after a long day of skiing. There is a little cafe on the roof of the building at the right, and I think that's the Schreckhorn looming in the background. 
Here I've made it safely down to Grund after a hard day of skiing and decided to pose with a Bernese Mountain dog who was chained up outside the cafe at the train station.
Switzerland is a very dog friendly place. Dogs on the trains, in the shops and
cafes...
