Some sheep crossed the street.

Also some roadworks with "cones" to keep the car busy while it doesn't have to drive itself.

Unfortunately it is rapidly shrinking. Here is a picture of my grandma standing on ice in the mid 1950s where nowadays you only find the glacier lake.

The guy next to her in the first picture is my granpa.
