Lake Matheson, 2nd attempt

The first day with a bit of sunshine! We had almost forgotten what that felt like. It was still cloudy enough in the mountains to obscure a decent view of Lake Matheson, though.

Maddie and I had checked out the lake two days ago, but all we could confirm was that there was a lake—it was far too rainy and foggy to see anything else. Lake Matheson is famous for its perfect mirror reflections under the right conditions. Today’s weather was arguably better, but the spectacular mountains remained hidden behind clouds, and a gentle yet disruptive breeze rippled the water.

At one point, though, I managed to capture a picture of my reflection in the lake. ^^

Much later that day, we arrived at our new campsite which had a Scrabble game. You didn't have to ask Andrew, Maddie and I twice to play. :)
My gaming skills were off the charts. I was way ahead in points throughout the game. I just wasn't able to place one letter: V. V had 4 points. My score: 197. Andrew had caught up in points, but I wasn't worried.

I should have been.

While he "only" had 194 points, he was the first to finish and to inform us, that the points of unplayed letters would be subtracted from the total... Soooo. My now 193 points lost me a spectacular game. Ow, ow, oh, the pain. 😁🙈Read more
