I thought so too, Carol, thinking the people in red were dressed in costume...are they looking at sheep or goats?  I have tried zooming in but it's all blurry.... that sculpture behind is a clue has got me on another track...

Where did I see this traffic jam from my window? :) 

I recognise those goats and so I would guess at Zermatt??

Definitely goats, the folk in red are walkers complete with rucksacks and cameras... possibly and organised group all in the same sweatshirts? [Not that this is any help in deciding where they are!]  Yes Robin if we could get a descent look at the sculpture it would give us a clue... Tony has managed not to show and signs or building names  ??? I'm still sticking with Austria  ;D

Carol could this be the sculpture?  Although what beavers would be doing in the town centre is even stranger than two-tone goats!

I think of beavers as having big, flat tails. Is it possible that these are marmots, more typical of the alps.

I don't know how we got to beavers but Robin knows the answer!  Tony does not do Austria (yet) ...and someone else has clearly been stuck in traffic too ;)
