This time next week, we will already have been on the road for a while, headed to Locarno, Switzerland. I think we’re all really looking forward to the trip now although it will be interesting to see if any of us still remember how to climb since it’s been nearly a year since we last went. But it’s usually like riding a bike so I think we should all do fine. And we’ve been climbing here before so that should help us out. Besides, when we went last year, we had only been once in the previous 6 months so I guess we’re not so bad off. To say that it’s going to be awesome when we finally have our own climbing hall at the farm is an understand.
Anyway, Jenny is coming over tonight and tomorrow we’ll go buy new shoes for her. She has climbing shoes but they are massively uncomfortable as climbing shoes are “supposed” to be. But after climbing a few routes, her feet look and feel like they’re going to fall off and we just can’t have that. We will be looking to climb most of the day and we don’t want her to have to sit out most of the fun. Last year we gave her new shoes as a birthday present but haven’t had the chance to buy them for her yet…so this will be the weekend since there won’t be time otherwise.
We’ve got the climbing guide ready to go and already have our apartment reservation as well. We’re staying at same place as last year and are really looking forward to the pasta and especially the ice cream! 🙂
I stumbled on your blog, looking for info on our Easter trip to Locarno. I’m american, married to a swiss man in Neuchatel. It is somewhat ironic to find that you are going there as well. If I see you at the Pizza Popolo (since i saw your photo on your blog here) I may come say hello 🙂
Hi Jessica,
I don’t know if you’ll stumble by here again but you really should have come over to say hello…had you seen us there. I would have loved to meet you and I caught myself looking at the many faces around us, trying to figure out if one of them was you. Of course I was having a blond moment and didn’t see your blog before or I might have even recognized you…at any rate, maybe we’ll bump into each other somewhere else 🙂
