My trip to Switzerland: Day 3, afternoon

After the hike at the First, my wife and I headed back for the cable car station at the main tourist area in Grindelwald. We were tired, but we sticked to our original plan of a hike at Meannlichen. We took a trail called Panorama Hiking Trail, that took us around 2 hours to Kleinen Scheidegg. In the middle of the trail, we saw a herdsman guiding a herd of cows with their herding dogs and a procession of them walking in the opposite direction. It was my very first time to see herding and a very pleasant experience for us. The view from the trail was also scenic and by far exceeded my expectation. After the trail, we headed back to the main station in Grindelwald in which we could find a train to go to the nearest station to our hotel. I was filled with the satisfaction with the pleasant hike, but I was also a bit pissed off by one difficult-to-understand event. When we were heading to the main station, I passed by a shop to buy a cigarette as there was a smoking stand. When I was about to lid fire on a cigarette, a cashier who rang up the sale of the cigarette took away the stand which was right in front of me. I was a bit offended, because I saw a pile of ash on the stand and felt like that cashier intentionally took it away so I cannot smoke there. We actually had a bit of difficulty in communication when I bought the cigarette and that might have annoyed or irritated the cashier, but I am pretty sure I tried to keep behaving in the best way I can do. I anyway tried not to be obsessed with this too much, because I didn't want to let this event, regardless which person was bad, ruin all the great experiences I had so far on this day. After the train, we grabbed some delis at a supermarket and ate them in our room of the hotel. We also went to a self-service pub nearby our hotel. Pouring beer by myself was much fun and all beers I tried were delicious. I was glad that the day was over with this nice new experience.
