Wee bridge 

Tunnels

Weisshorn under there, somewhere 
The stubborn cloud plagued the Zermatt area once again today. We had light rain and low cloud this morning.  Also feeling quite chilly. This never put Bridget & Sue off their penultimate day of the Tour of the Matterhorn. To get the best of the weather forecast,  we did the Zermatt to Randa section in reverse, hoping for better weather in the afternoon and some magic Matterhorn photo opportunities. They never  came, the iconic mountain was clas in think, low cloud all day. Still we had a fun day on the new Bridge along the Europaweg. We had the trail to ourselves for much of the day. In the afternoon we spotted Chamois,  ibex and plenty of marmotts. It was lovely and peaceful along the Europaweg,  presumerbly because of the weather?! Last day of this tour tomorrow.  Will we see the Matterhorn?
