We just spent 2 nights in a lovely little town called Saas Grund with Marthese’s German host family from her High School exchange. The Ostermann’s were lovely and generous, they looked after us so well. We were kept warm with lots of food and alcohol.
Beer, wine, schnapps and punch (a warm-fruity-potent-alcohol-creamy-delicious-thingy).
A definte highlight was eating Raclette, a traditional Swiss meal that involves melting cheese onto potato and eating until you collapse or explode.
As you can see from the pictures, it snowed. We spent a few hours up on the mountain (3km above sea level apparently!) where it was about -15C. Despite the cold and the sting of the wind and snow, it was a gorgeous place to be.
Many thanks again to Wiebke, Connie & Matthias for making our stay so memorable. So awesome, an amazing few days.
Oh and of course thanks to Leo, the dog. I miss you already.
