OK, so the last one was actually Whitmonday (the 7th Monday from Easter), not Corpus Christi... where are all the good Catholics that read this to correct me... oh yeah, never mind :)
Anyway, so today was yet another day off. Made pancakes for breakfast and watched the weather with high hopes to go outside climbing. Michele from the Kletterarena (rock climbing gym), invited us climbing in Hessigheim. He kindly offered to pick us up and use all his gear. It stormed in the morning, but sometimes the weather is strange here where it can go from beautiful to storming and back within a few hours, so I was hoping the rain would pass over and be clear for the day. We decided to chance it and hope for the best.
As soon as we arrived it started pouring, but after a few moments it stopped and we headed down the trails to the bluff. The climbing area is over the river Neckar, overlooking beautiful vineyards and the rock is in the canyon area. The weather held for quite a while with just a few drops here and there. It wasn't until early evening when the wind got too strong that we had to head out. It may not have been the perfect climbing conditions but it was incredible to get out there and climb. It felt great.
Follow up with delicious ice cream made for a wonderful day.
