Oh Christoph.
Christoph is the grounds and maintenance man here at Our Chalet.
He's basically like a German Chuck Norris,
but better.
He's hilarious.
And odd.
And everything else amazing.
And every now and then,
he takes random trips and tells the vollies...
"Whoever is sitting in my car at 9 am when I go to leave, can come with"
So that's just what Jess and I did yesterday.
We were sitting in his car at 9 am,
ready for an exciting day of "Christoph Adventuring"
We ended up going to a valley two valleys away,
called Gasteretal.
It's a really special valley,
you can only enter from this time to this time,
and you can only exit from this time to this time.
Also, you have to have a pass to enter.
The road getting in is extremely narrow,
and slightly terrifying with Christoph's European driving.
But once in, you are struck my a beauty that you can't even imagine.
Christoph took us a to a Gasthaus and we had tea, coffee, and pastries.
And then we began to hike.
For anyone that knows me knows, I HATE HIKING,
however, this hike was at a slow pace,
we had nowhere to be at a specific time,
It was the most enjoyable hike I've ever been on.
We had an ice cream about two thirds of the way up,
and then continued up to this little spot off the beaten path and had our packed lunches.
Once back at the car, Christoph decided we would go to KISC,
so we went to KISC.
(P.S. KISC is Kandersteg International Scout Center)
It's AMAZING!
We saw Karin, a spring vollie of Our Chalet,
and then Jess and I basically wandered around.
All in all,
it was a perfect day.
