schwarzwald-mannheim, deustchland
today was the day for our long awaited trek to the highest point in schwarzwald – feldberg. the climb was very different from what we usually do in the malaysian rainforest. instead of mud and leeches, we got lots of snow and erm, more snow. it wasn’t easy balancing ourselves on the snow, but it was an interesting experience.

we have reached!
we also introduced trail mix to yinghao (smux invasion! yay!) and it felt like trekking all over again.
snow capped @ 1493m!

in the afternoon, we packed our bags and took a train out to mannheim, where zhirui kindly took us in for the night. actually it was more like he managed to borrow a room from his friends who are away on holiday for us.
that night, we met up with more singaporeans from ntu, on exchange at mannheim university. their hostel, though located at some seedy area (just a week ago, there was a shooting case in the neighbourhood!) had a nice pub, so we kinda just sat there and chatted the night away.
