Just came back from the Duke of Edinburgh practice expedition. Let's just say it was eventful. I remember Yasmin and I used that word to describe last year's trip.
My group and I almost got attacked by curious cows. (How more Swiss can you get?) We were walking on a road that was surrounded by a herd of cows and they started following us, ringing their bells that we have later defined as "hells bells" or the "warning bells". Some cows were even running after us (or at least it seemed like they were). Luckily, we quickly crossed over an electrical fence while ther cows stood there staring and mooing. I guess I exaggurated a little bit, but I will never see cows and "friendly harmless creatures" again.
We also encountered an angry black dog on our way that was barking at us for no clear reason.
Today during lunch we were having what one can call a deep conversation. I didn't agree with most of what was said, but I couldn't be bothered to argue with anyone. The only thing I concluded from the conversation was that I hate capitalism and division in society. And I can't stand rich families or the idea of inheritance. Charlie also mentioned "Brave New World", a book that I will never read because I hate all that dystopian crap or any sort of fiction. I prefer dry facts with no personal opinion of the author because opinions annoy me. I don't like the way I sound in this post.
Back to the subject.
I think I twisted my ankle as we were trying to avoid cows. I hope no one in my group noticed that I was slightly limping because I don't want to appear weak. I heard my ankle crack as I stepped on a rock and it really hurts whenever I put my weight on it. Like the word cares about this... -_-
After all, I guess hiking with my nakama was quite fun and I'm glad I took my camera so here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure:
