Nurit and I did go hiking in Switzerland for my 65th birthday and we did have two days of perfect weather.  On the rest of the days the weather was not so perfect but we still had fun and learned a lot.

On the good days we walked on beautiful trails surrounded by wild flowers with the high Alps in the background.

It was really amazing, like walking in post cards. 

Thanks to Alpine Adventures for their organizing ability and to all of the other hikers who shared the trip with us.  Special thanks to the guides Ron, Janet and Jim.  Tomorrow a comparison of Yosemite National Park and the Jungfrau region.
