6th Picture

Kate from Paperleaf tagged me to:
'open the 6th picture folder on your computer, open the 6th photo and blog it. Write something about it. Then tag 6 more people to do the same'

Here is my pic:This was taken in 2002 in Berner Oberland, Switzerland, and the man in the pic is my Dad. On this day, we hiked up to the very top of a mountain (1955 m high) the only thing there was this hut - called the 'lobhorn hut'. The hut is manned for about 8 months of the year. They serve food here (amazing really for a wooden hut at the top of a mountain) and the hut also serves as accommodation for hardcore hikers (not me). The views were pretty spectacular - the mountains in the background are the Eiger and Jungfrau. I found the walk down much more enjoyable than the walk up mind you :o)

It was fun to revisit this pic after such a long time. I'm not going to pass this one along though as I've seen it in blogland for a long time so I'm sure most have done it already. If you haven't, then please play along, and show us all your random pictures from your photo archives.
