Allgaeu - day 1

We spent the last week in Germany's south-western corner, bordering Switzerland and Austria.
The area is called 'Allgaeu' and is full of small mountains, strangely dressed people and cows with fluffy ears
(but no internet connection).

We had a wonderful time, because despite doing most of our mountaineering with the help of various lifts:

Here some pictures from our first day:

After unpacking, one of our party forced everybody else to first stop at this chute (guess who):

On the way up (this was the only time I was allowed to go with Eva, she then decided I drive far to slowly):

The racing Oma:

Then we took the lift up:

On top:

An 'alm', which is a place where they milk the cows that spend all summer in the mountains, and make cheese and butter:

On the way home we stopped to buy supplies:

Eva entertained herself while we were buying food:

And now I am going back outside, Germany is hot hot hot, and not a cloud in the sky!



A wonderful day to you!
