We travelled back to Switzerland yesterday and, as luck would have it, our buddies Beves and Ibe were on the same flight.

This was really good as they have a car, meaning we didn’t need to get the train from Geneva. Ibe dropped us off at Lauterbrunnen and we got to Wengen in record time – just 8 and a half hours door to door.

The weather was a bit gloomy and cold when we arrived in Wengen last night, but this morning the sun was out and we enjoyed some lovely views on our walk up to the Co-op.

Everything is very green, and Wengen is in fine fettle. There’s very little open in the village, but we got what we needed from the Co-op and the bakery. We had a stroll back up this evening for a drink and were rewarded with a fantastic evening view of the Jungfrau when we got home.

I started my running programme while we were in the UK, so I’m looking forward to a run down in the valley tomorrow.
