Weisssee








The day after our huge hike we decided to take it easy and took a cable car up to this amazing glacier lake the Weißsee or if you don't have a German keyboard the Weisssee.  Actually we were all still exhausted and didn't have the energy for another big hike which was a shame because once you rode the cable car up there was a lot of land to explore.  Although, even if we'd had the energy, I don't think we had the equipment for this hike.  Everyone we saw had at least ski poles.  But all of that aside you can see that we had quite an amazing experience.  There was a thick fog (or cloud?) on our arrival that seemed destined to swallow us up.  It shifted back and forth as we walked and then it opened wide up and let in the sun.  The lake, which was pretty fabulous before the sun, was downright amazing.  I took a gazillion photos of the water, the ice, and the reflected mountain.
