I'm not complaining, but I have not had nearly as many lattes in quaint sidewalk cafes or panoramic vistas as I had hoped while on vacation. The rest of the family just doesn't have the same priority --- so the majority wins. Today we ascended into the Alps about 2000 feet and stopped for lunch after a 2-3 mile hike. We hoped to ascend even higher to Jungfraujoch, the "Top of Europe," where a warm latte sounded heavenly in the 40 degree temps, but all we would have seen was clouds. We enjoyed what we had instead.
At lunch, Steve ordered the Mountain Twister, a non-alcoholic beer that seemed to have a hint of champagne. It was as light and refreshing as the Alps.
