We are in Chur, Switzerland, and yesterday went on an amazing mountain railway to Arosa. Ian lost count of the number of tunnels and bridges. There was no straight track, the train was always going into a new bend, and often a bridge over a steep gorge lead into a curved tunnel. A very enjoyable trip.
We competed in a sprint orienteering event in the old parr of Chur last night. Lots of narrow alley ways, and heaps of squares, each with a fountain. We also met our friend Jurg who we met in NZ 20 years ago and we visited here 5 years ago.
This moring the market is setting up right outside our hotel window. Fresk veges, croisants and buns.
Today we catch the bus to Flims where the SOW orienteering event is based for the next week. Lots of mountains to run on.
Steven is safely back in Rotorua with the heater on, and the cat is home from the cattery. Angela leaves Stockholm on Sunday for NZ. Angela was a very creditable 17th over the 5 days at Oringen.
Ian and Raewyn
