An Early Start

I don't recall the exact time or train schedule, but obviously, we had to get up at O-dark-30 to get to the race on time.  You see, we were on the western side of the Swiss Alps and the race was in the central Alps. So we had to catch the train down the hill from Leysin to Aigle, then the train up the Valley (Vallai is actually the name of the canton through which we traveled) to Brig (pronounced Breeg), and then up Bettmeralp (a ski hill) on a gondola or tram or whatever you may call it.  Anyhow, here we are walking down our little path which leads to the local train station in Leysin.
