Hugo made me promise that if we ever got back to Switzerland that I should post some pics on here to remind him of his own past travels and to see another world.
So here are some walks that we have done over the past fortnight.
As far as the travel goes it was the first time abroad for us since Feb 2000 and it was a bit of a pain doing all the various tests. There were enormous queues for check in going out at Manchester and coming back from Zurich. We had paid a little bit more to go with Swiss in business class and this was money well spent as we avoided all this queuing and you are guaranteed an empty set next to you. Masks had a to be worn at both airports and during the flights.
We had to have proof of vaccination to go into a restaurant in Switzerland. We had to fill in passenger locator forms both ways, take a lateral flow test 2 days before returning and a PCR test on return. All negative so far!
The first set of photos are from a walk we did from Thun to Sigriswil which ends on this amazing bridge. It is called a Panorama walk and it was certainly that with beautiful views of lake Thun below and of the high peaks of the Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau.
The second set of photos is the walk called the Gemsweg in Saas Fee where you are surrounded by 4000m peaks which action man was happy to tell me often that he had climbed them most of them in the past!
The third set of photos were taken in Adelboden in the Bernese Oberland. This is a place that we have visited many times over the last 38 years!
