Weekend in Inden/Lekerbad (11.&12.9.2010)

I thought to myself: Eddi, you need to blog a little more again. So thats what I'm doing. Luckily I got tons to write about :-).
After my USA trip last summer, I've been working at the FKD (Financial dept.) in Liestal.
It's been a great year with a perfect topping. I passed my vocational diploma (Berufsmatura) last week, which I've been working for, for one year. Right now I'm my boss' deputy for the next 4 weeks, which is a nice acknowledgment. Sadly, I can only stay until the end of October. After that I'll have to find another job which hasn't been easy so far. Well, I'm sure someone will hire me ;-)

What I really wanted to blog about, was my trip to Inden/Leukerbad with my friend Annina.
We Left Liestal on Saturday 11.9 at 7.49 and arrived in Inden at about 11.00. We took the bus to Leukerbad at 12.00 and set off for our hiking trip. Even though I'm in very good shape at the moment, I felt the thin air on 2000m. The hike took us about 5 hours with breaks of course ;-). It was such a beautiful and warm day that we were able to hike in shorts and t-shirt. We got back to our apartment at around 19.00. As we were so tired, we had almost trouble cooking dinner =). Don't get nervous, we managed to eat. However, that was about it for that day.

On Sunday, we wanted to go hiking a little longer. Sadly, Annina wasn't well so I set off alone to Leukerbad. It took me 1 hour and I enjoyed the time alone to think. After a short wait at the Bus station, Annina arrived and we set of for an easy hike. We actually wanted to take the gondola up to the Torrenthorn, however, they had a lunch break (insane) so we had to think of something new. Afterwards I have to say I'm really happy we didn't wait, as we took a foot bath in an ice cold lake and walked through a awesome canyon.We came back to Leukerbad at 15.00 and were able to go to the Wellness center for three hours. It was just the perfect ending of a beautiful weekend.
There was just one little incident, which I have to laugh about now. As we were on our way down by bus to the train station we suddenly drove a lot slower. The reasons were sheep on the main road (there is actually only one) so we missed our follow up train and got home 1 hour later than planned. But as I said, now I think its funny. It's just another world up there.

I hope you enjoyed the reading and I will try to write a little more. My next blog should be online at around the end of October when I'm back from my trip to Stockholm which I'm really looking forward to.
