The Swiss Alps on full wintery display. A valley rests thousands of feet below, while ridges above it are topped with snow covered conifers. In the distances is a row of glacial capped peaks.

I had a wonderful time this past week in Switzerland. It doesn't matter the season, I just love visiting the Alps.

Plus I got to visit a friend in Alsace and do some stationary/pen shopping in Bern. It was solid trip.
