Gone hiking

Andy and I have been talking for a while about doing a hike with Carsten on the ridge just behind our house. So, we took the jump and went Monday morning in celebration of Labor Day. We enjoyed the lovely, cool weather, and I enjoyed it that Carsten was able to walk some of the way instead of having to be carried all of the way like last summer. It was also a relatively easy 3 hr hike since we started in Forch and ended in Egg. We took a snack break in the middle to admire the view of Lake Zurich and the Alps. All in all, it was great fun and we loved being able to do some hiking with wonderful views (especially since it was soooo close!). Here's some photos:

Carsten decided that Andy did not need his hat anymore.
Pretty Alps.

All in all, it was a great time and we will be doing it again before we leave :). We live in a very beautiful place...
