21st July 2020 - Lauterbrunnen

We got the train up Jungfraujoch today to the station at the top. Bit touristy but views we awesome. Unbelievable that they tunnelled through the mountains to built the rail track. Opened in 1912.  Had crazy weather today. Warm at the bottom, blizzards and cold at the top then finished the afternoon with thunder and rain.

After lunch we went to Grindelwald and caught the bubble lift to First.  We did the cliff walk before a long train home.

Left Chamonix after a great week. Arrived at Annecy. We are staying at Les Rives Du Lac. Really nice site on the lakes edge, not far from where we stayed in 2020.  First day chilled and had a beer in Annecy. Yesterday cycled the lake with Mel and had lunch half way around. (I actually did two loops!) Planning a bit of paddle boarding today before starting the homeward journey tomorrow.

Spent the weekend doing the Lakesman h Tri (5hr36) Weather was surprising good and we had a great weekend. Even managed to eat in the Dog and gun. Which was average. Travelled to Boot on Monday. Tuesday was a glorious day and we hiked Harter Fell coming back by Hardnott Pass and the Roman fort. Ate in the Woolpack last night. Tatty pot was excellent. This morning I ran Illgill Head / Whin Rigg. About 11 miles. Weather has been crap and we have sat around most of the day apart from a stroll through Howes wood.  Going to Boot Inn tonight.

Paragliding tomorrow! Staying at Camping De Ecrueils, about 2 miles from Chamonix. Lovely little site.
