Todays planned activity is cable car from leukerbad up to gemmi pass at 2300m then walk back down 900m back to car in less than 2 hours - have seen mountain bikers do it on you tube and not sure how tyey managed it . Tried to wait for some weather to clear but no chance - got to top no sign of any views at all - cleared as we were going down in places -"quite steep all the way down with some scary corners for lou - I think it was better she couldnt see down at some points - my toes and knees were hurting near bottom - I have taken twice as many steps as everyone else because of my little legs ! Had picnic on way back to camp and got back to find large tent and 4 children next door - at least we are leavibg tommorrow - dad provided some entertainment putting up a shelter didnt read the instructions and still hasnt typical man ! They were english from denmark and seemed nice family gave them all our tourist notes and leaflets and left over food as next stop is b and b. Had about 3 hours of sun in the afternoon so reading undertaken by all before making tea then heading off to bar to watch world cup final. Took some surplus white wine in a water bottle to make it cheaper - classy bird . ! One drunken german bloke at bar proceeded to shout deutschland every 5 mins and then disappeared after 90 mins and missed the best bit! Bed for 12 as early up tomo for move.....
