Switzerland / submitted by Jim Thomas of Williamsburg

My wife and I, along with a friend from Seattle, took a trip to the Alps in August, visiting Cortina d’Ampezzo in Italy, Chamonix in France, and Zermatt in Switzerland. The weather cooperated, for the most part, with just one rain day interfering with our schedule. On our only day in Zermatt, the Matterhorn emerged from the clouds at midmorning. The photo is an early morning view from our hotel on the way out.
