My son Wulfric at Bex, Switzerland. We were about to take the BVB up to Villars and Bretaye. We drove down from Sussex, back when I could still drive.

Took the rack railway from Bex up to Col-de-Bretaye intending to have a look around and get the next train back down… which quickly turned into much longer visit with a steep walk up to the summit of Le Chamossaire! 🚞🇨🇭

Holiday snaps of the Adler family at Bretaye in the Swiss Alps, trying all sorts of activities in the snow. Their outfits for such pursuits are a far cry from what we would consider suitable clothing, with the ladies wearing long skirts to ski and skate! #WinterWonders https://buff.ly/3VH7RFk
