Yesterday we had a real taste of why we drove all this way! Hiked up
the Schramstein, a ridge of rocks a few miles from camp. It was hard
going especially for those not really used to hiking but everyone made
it. Hundreds of steps, a few ladders and some steep inclines lead us
to some stunning views stretching for miles. In the evening we sang
songs round a slightly reluctant camp fire and ate stew. Holly and
Rebekah have been doing their mother goose bit, keeping us all well
fed. Rebekah was pleased her mum taught her the sleeping bag slow
cooking method which the girls used to good effect. Today we go
climbing. Or rather they do. I shall be staying on the ground,
hopefully taking pictures and making lunch. Our first early start
today. I had hoped to email some pictures to go with posts but don't
have enough bandwidth. May get faster connection in Dresden tomorrow
in which case i will send some to update posts.
