Just a small selection of this season's finest: Which one is the Swiss Alp? How long is happy hour? What do I put for Nationality? What size shoes do I need? How do I put these boots on? How do I know if they fit? (my personal favourite) Who built the Canyon? (Asked at the bar) Where can I get a beer? What are the avalanche catchers for? If I was biking, would I be able to keep up with my friends that are driving scooters? Is there water in the waterfalls? Why did they build a castle beside the railway line? Is it salt walter in the canyon? What's the differance between ice skating and skiing? My friends went hiking, do you know where they are? How do I use the phone (Answer: you push the buttons) What number do I dial? (Answer: I don't know) What time is the 9.30 Canyon trip? No prizes for guessing the nationality of most of the questioners! All genuine and plenty more where they came from! Of course the all time classic which gets asked at least twice every season-- How come that small mountain (Jungfrau 4,158m and about 18km away) has got snow on it but those big ones (Shynige Platte 1967m and under 2km away) haven't? Answer: Did you watch Sesame street when you were a kid?
