the past saturday we wanted to go skiing. when we arrived in adelboden at 20 past 9 in the morning we were informed that the whole ski-region is closed because of the guggifohn (a wind with velocities up to 246 km/h ). we then waited for more informations, but around 10:30 it was evident that the chairlifts and cablecars won’t open for the day.
we then decided to switch to the engstligenalp , but it turned out that the fohn was blowing there, too.
before we drove to grindelwald we first called them, and indeed, they were closed, too. so after a short debate we decided to do something really silly, namely drive from frutigen to le bouveret into the aquaparc , without changing any clothes and leaving ski equipement for five persons in the car.
this explains why pesche stands in front of those toboggans with his snowboard clothes:
in the end it was also rather funny, but a skiing day would have been more welcome.
