      Up and over- Zinal

      July 11, 2023 in Switzerland ⋅ ☁️ 23 °C

      A relaxing day to say the least! I decided to take the telecabine up and over the pass to my next town. It was going to be a pretty short chill day- I just decided to take a zero. The crazy lightening storm kept me up throughout the night as I watched and heard it develop. Wild. I’m glad I was comfortable in a valley hotel. On the way over the pass, I popped out to enter into a gathering- wine and a dj at 10:30 am with a view of all the cool peaks, including the Weisshorn! Definitely hitting the German influenced Swiss Alps. Then I went down and did a local river loop. For the third time, I bumped into Dave on my way back into town. I met Dave at my first lakeside cabane, then was at the same hotel in Le Sage. He’s a retired school counselor that worked in international schools for most of his career. His wife didn’t want to join him on this hike, so we’ll meet up for a beer before dinner tonight. I hit the spa and am now getting ready for the eating and drinking fest to begin!Read more

      Grimetz

      July 30, 2020 in Switzerland ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

      Un dernier arrêt alpin sur la route du lac Léman pour visiter un ultime village typique du Valais.
      L'occasion pour nous de mentionner la difficulté pendant ce voyage de nous débarrasser de nos déchets. En Suisse les ordures ménagères sont gérés localement par un système d'achat de sacs taxés, mais quand vous êtes itinérants vous n'avez aucune solution : les poubelles en général sont cadenassées et celles publiques disposent d'une ouverture microscopique, bref une vraie galère.Read more
