Then we needed a walk so we decided to go for a hike! Only somehow we started walking "around" the mountain a few kilometers and saw a sign for a viewpoint, so up we went.
Apparently we walked around to the back side of the mountain and went up an alternate way and found a really cool lookout and compass thing on top of a miniature stone castle. It was a beautiful day but the forecast is definitely calling for rain....should we pack around our coats just in case?!
After we are done exploring this little find (oh and there's wild raspberries up here as well!) we decide to go find the real lookout, where the tourists go.... But for some reason we could not locate it?! Hmm okay well we will do that hike tomorrow. We start hiking down, only we pop out somewhere south of town!
The next day we find the viewpoint, 419 steps up to the top! Phew, really getting our hiking in these last couple of days, jeg elsker!
Then the next day it actually rained enough to make us bring/wear our raincoats (then we proceeded to hang dry on any available surface our damp clothing and items, hooks were pretty scarce as we are in a 12 bed womens dorm and they are doing the same as we are...) I had time to catch up on the last few blogs tho! (but this one is a few days late as we have been traveling/minimal Internet)
Time is going by fast!
