'He looked up at the mountains.  The sun cast shadows from the trees and the steel girders of the lifts sparkled in its strong light.  He felt the warmth on his skin - it felt good.  He smiled at his wife, the tension of the past weeks dissipating in their eyes.  His wife, his son - both his sons - together in this magical place where holidaying and fun and natural beauty were synonymous, this was cause for celebration, and Caroline...  Had he been hasty in his concern about his son's choice of partner?'
