When John was with Andrew Ringwood he made Andrew drive the van down this very windy road and he road his bike down. He is quite mad … especially when you factor in the fact that the bike is a complete heap of crap!
So on Thursday 10 July we finally got to do a proper trek in the Dolomites. John had done this one before so knew that the track was pretty good.
Till and I both loved it. She isn’t really a mountain person … reckons it always rains in the mountains and she does like rain … but she was gob smacked by the scenery.
We walked for about two hours to view a beautiful lake. We had a coffee at a ski lodge and then turned back again. We had a date with Mary Rose and Bruce in Missiano. They were heading up from Lake Garda especially to see us for the night.
The walked back took a little less time. I still had trouble with altitude sickness on this walk but felt that it was getting a bit better towards the end. John said that he felt better this time around. Maybe I will get better at it.
Fantastic..even beats Bartle Frere !
