After an amazing morning up at 10000ft we spent the afternoon exploring Zermatt. It's a small town but very pretty.
We had lunch at a traditional Swiss restaurant. Raclette as a starter followed by rosti for my main course. It was a lovely meal.
The town is closed to almost all vehicles with the exception of horse carriages and small electric "taxis" with a top speed of 20kph.
Even the police are restricted to an electric vehicle and I'm sure a thief who was fit enough could outrun them on foot.
We did a lot of shopping and took in the highlights, including the church, climbers' graveyard, etc.
After an exhausting day we spent the evening having a drink in the hotel bar before heading to bed for an early night. It's another 6.30am start tomorrow to head for the train station and on to Geneva.
