Patrick is still in Lyon. I think he only has time for Zermatt on this trip.
35km East of Lyon.
Taking the train to Zermatt Wednesday, hoping for the weather to cooperate. Total all the skiing was shutdown in Zermatt and part of Cervinia. Suppose to snow until early Wednesday.
We have booked 5 nights in Zermatt (actually Fri-Sat nights are in Tasch, everything was soldout or crazy expensive. We might leave after skiing on next Monday or Tuesday. Overnight to train Hamburg and Copenhagen to spend our last week in Europe.
