Good Start

So, finally we have time to let you know how we are doing. we intended to write a couple of times already, but last days have been long and not as expected. But to begin at the beginning, we had a good start. On the first day we already got invited by someone driving by to pitch up our tent in her garden, sheltered from the rain. But when arriving we got a boatshed offered, with bed, sofa and fireplace! Next days on the roads walked good, though we found our this year spring is very cold and late- first we thought it was a Joke if people asked if we have ski with us, or where telling there is still up to 9mtr of snow in the  mountains. But when leaving the road we quickly found out that if there's no snow, there is a lot of water.the paths turned in to streams and it really makes no sense yet (and is even dangerous if lakes are almost invisible under snow, and roaring meltwater rivers are covered by thin bridges of wet snow ..) So after a week with long days partly walking back because we couldn't go on we are now standing on a pretty camping (with finally sun in blue skies!:-) ) and have time to replan our route-sticking more to car roads until the snow is molten and we can walk on mountainpaths.
