ICS hiking club

 What a view!

One of the fun thing the school has is a hiking club for the kids.  Best part is parents can come along too!  (Kids might not agree that is the best part...)  One of the teachers who has lived here awhile and is very familiar with the hiking trails in Switzerland leads a hike about once a month in the fall, until they are covered with snow, and then again in the spring as soon as the snow melts.  We all went on one a few weeks ago.  It was near the Walensee, just below the Churfirsten peaks.  The day started out cloudy and rainy of course but the sun came out in the afternoon for a gorgeous day!  We even say our first Swiss Chamois kind of like an antelope.  They can leap 4 meters vertically!  We didn't see them do any leaping but just wandering around on the rock.  Lots of fun.
