The weather this summer in Switzerland has not proved to have as many sunny days as it usually does. Nonetheless, we spent a lot of time outside with the campers.
This is a photo of a full sky double rainbow after an evening thunderstorm in Leysin over the Alps.
On family afternoon it was raining, but our faculty family proceeded to have a campfire and roast marshmallows
And then there was Zermatt....in mid-July....Good thing I had a carrot in my bag. You never know when you'll need it for a snowman nose. Ovomaltine cookie eyes, carrot nose and balisto bar smile for this guy!

Hiking in the snow |

Looking for the Matterhorn |
|
It was easier to slide down on our bums |
|
And then the Matterhorn came out from the snow and clouds... |
|
....so I took a selfie with it. |
And then there's dorm night....the kids all get the same supplies and have to dress the staff in anyway they see fit for the Mr. Leysin contest..
