    D20 - TMB Orsieres to La Fouly

    July 24, 2019 in Switzerland ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    So since we’re walking our little touchies off for 10 days with no certainty of wifi- we’ve decided to keep the updates short and sweet....

    TOP 3 Highlights:
    1. Eating alpine fare - We found wild raspberries and blueberries along the way which kept our sugars up (in partnership with skittles), and also added some wild thyme on our tomato and cheese sandwiches at lunch. Sounds a bit wanky...probably is.
    2. Fresh water on tap - We were able to routinely fill up our drink bottles but the best surprise was coming across a spring of mountain water. So clear, fresh and ice cold. And yes, Ant stuck his head in.
    3. Alpine brew - When we reached our hotel in La Fouly, naturally the first thing that Ant noticed was that they stocked their own beer. That’s where we find ourselves now...playing some cards and drinking some lovely cold beer. And the bottle has a Saint Bernard on it. Maybe I’ll put it to local breweries back home to incorporate retired greyhounds to their packaging?
