What goes up ......

Post lunch decided to take the Moll's advice a head up the local toboggan track which is 2.5km long and starts high up in the mountains. Armed with iTunes, water and my fitbit I headed skyward. After a stunning 60 minute walk I find myself at the summit and a lodge Graf Ferdinand that supplied many local delicacies and fine beers and wine. The only downside to the plan was the fact that toboggans had to be rented at bottom of run rather than the top and to my disbelief I realised I would have to retrace my steps with no other form of transport available. Even looked for a friendly bin lid or cardboard box, but to no avail my great plan of exerting all my energy on way up to gently meander down on a wooden contraption had failed. Only upside was that I completed over 25000 steps but also had walked up the equivalent of 145 flights of stairs, my previous record had been 67. Tonight we head up as a large group in a Rangerover, couple of rounds of schnapps and then down we go. Hoping insurance paid up and that Kiera goes with her mum. I feel another potential story tomorrow, as long as its not from a hospital bed!
