Sequence of photos of eating take away (stolen) dried pork:
- Take pork out of snowboaring pants pocket.
- Ignore fact that pocket was built for carrying lift tickets and not stolen pork.
- Verify no wild animals successfully infiltrated cable car.
- Unwrap pork from protective paper (i.e. ski trail map).
Unwrap pork from paper doily (also borrowed from Restaurant Furri).
Grateful that no one else is in cable car, including wild animals still possibly trailing outside (look of complete joy masked by strange balaclava type thing on face).
Enjoy. (Never mind creeper outside window).
Five minutes later - succumb to food coma. (Or perhaps just "mentalizing", in

11.50 Swiss francs for a Big Mac ($12.30), but no reservation required.
Swiss version of Mannequin Pis with marmots (which suspiciously resemble beavers).
First, almost textbook, S tracks on the run (and deceiving prelude for subsequent pinwheeling on head).
Riffelberg - good place to stop after one, quick but clearly exhausting, run for the day.
Veuve outmarkets Dom.
Bikini Babe Tuesday - maybe not the best way to wake up one's roommate
in the middle of the night no matter how much said roommate loves
Shahs of Sunset.

View from Hotel Rhodania (successfully taken without knocking talls off ledge).

"If we did the Amazing Race, I would be like Joanna from The Hunger Games. Everyone thought she was weak until she knifed people in the eye. It'll be like me where I out-map everyone."
"It's an udder - it's not like stroking a cat."
"If there are two people and one is anorexic, the other should not be a whale."
