17 october 2004

Dinner yesterday was another noodle meal. And another can of fruit for desert. Then of for the bar for my free drink. And a long nice night. This morning my alarm rang for my day activity. (remember I had to arrange some stuff in town?) I had to be at 9.00 in the Frans Jozef Hiking Centre with loads of food and clothing. Because I went of to climb the Frans Jozef Glacier! We went up till 2.00/3.00 in the afternoon. Which was exhausting because my condition is crap at the moment. I even had momnets that I didn't think I would make it. But we had enought rest and I was walking with the slow group so that was good. It was really beautifull between alle the icewalls. Got also some amazing pictures. But more exhausting than I thought it would be. My knees aren't that good. But they are really awfull right now. And also all the muscles in my leg are so sore!! But it was all worth it. Although I will regret it tomorrow. After we stumbled back to the hostel and had a shower and food most people feel better. But I'm still sore :( But I will put some beers in, perhaps that will work. Just a little line about Frans Jozef. The environment is mostly rainforrest. Which is beautifull. (My hostel has also bits and pieces of rainforrest, it's such a good hostel!!) And off course a glacier in his environment. (That combination is quite unique!) Well I think thats it for today. I'm going to get some beer and check if I can get my muscles a bit better.
