A sense of freedom

One week has flown by at the camp. What a great team of brilliant teachers, fun people, marvelous friends. The Zuoz village festival, though small, proved a huge success and nearly the entire language team danced the night away. Fantastic evening, probably best ever in 11 years!

After a very wet day yesterday, it was wonderful today to arrive at the top of the spectacular Bernina Pass to perfect weather and a breathtaking view of the Lago Bianco and its glaciers. The colours were amazing.
 
 

The walk down to Diavolezza is breathtakingly beautiful with the colourful mountain slopes , the rocks covered with yellow and green lichen and the river weaving its way down the valley.

 

Add to that the wonderful company of two of my best friends, Dennis and Marc, with fantastically lively and sometimes hilarious discussions.

 

Plus the valley carpeted with pretty alpine flowers.

 

It was a gorgeous day in every possible way! 

Ready for the next week of camp now - second week always busy and sort of sad as half of my team prepare to leave.  Still, we will make the most of the remaining days.
