Description

30-07-11

We’re climbing up this mountain and we hear faint booming noises. We can’t tell if it’s thunder or just the wind, but the sky is clear so we assume it’s the wind. We get to the first signpost but almost every interesting viewpoint is an hour or more away and we don’t think we can there and back and still catch the last train.

So after about 20 minutes we start heading down and as soon as we get back to the little building by the station the skies open up and it starts hailing. Ice chunks as big as glass marbles! By the time we decide to stop huddling in the church entrance and catch the train, a cloud has swallowed the area and you can barely see 20 feet in front of you.

I felt sorry for all the people stuck on the mountain that didn’t make it back to the station. A sizable number of them didn’t bother to bring jackets. Just because it’s hot at the bottom of the mountain doesn’t mean it’s hot at the top!
