izardThis weekend we met our friends who live in St.Petersburg. The weather turned too bad for sightseeing, so on Sunday we went to Alps and took one of the most easy and popular trails up from Spitzingsee.
We were the only folks on a trail! There were few reasons for that: weather was bad, it is too late for skiing, and too early for hiking. So It was very unusual - usually the trail is crowded - you literally go back to back with some other hikers for kilometers.
Because of heavy rain and fog mountains were not particularly beautiful, but on a smaller scale there were plenty of sights of spring:
Under the cut, there are more indications of spring in Alps and finally, a photo of my wife. (I normally don't post her pictures in my blog)
Frog eggs,
Different flowers:
The only person we've seen was a guy fishing in a lake:
On the way downhill the only way not to fall down was to slide on a patches of snow just on hiking boots:
What did you expect? Yulia does not want her face to appear on internet, but is OK with kind of silhouette.
