The Expedition

TheOneRing

It was leap day and I really wanted to take that opportunity. I left the office around 1pm and took a train to Thun, and from there a bus to Höfen, a small village nearby. The weather conditions were abolutely perfect, sunny and wonderful warm.

From the bus stop it was a short walk (just 250 meter) through the village, when I found the geohash on a meadow on a hill. The view was amazing as the photographs hopefully show. Unfortunately, the conditions didn't really allow to have a picnic so I ate something a little bit later.

I took the usual photos and then walked back to Thun. I passed a still frozen lake but the air temperature was about 20°C, it won't be frozen for long. Thereafter, I got a train back home. Very, very nice.
