Good weekend

We just got back from Zermatt, which was great. My skiing was pitiful (more on that later) and I ended up sick most of the time, but it was still an excellent weekend and Gretchen is becoming a rock star skier. Plus, this may be hard to believe, but the real Matterhorn was even more spectacular than the one at Disneyland. Here we are at a very cold 3,900 meters (12,700 feet) getting ready to ski down to Italy, along with the view of the Matterhorn from our favourite lunch spot.
