Yesterday we visited Giessbach Falls on Lake Brienz. It’s more of a series of falls with trails to the very top and multiple bridges crossing the flow. Hiking up to the third bridge from lake level (~300m ascent) was a good workout.

Greece trip, day 12: Ferry to Santorini and then a tour of the island’s highlights. Beautiful views along the caldera and picturesque white buildings with occasional blue highlights. Also unusually green from recent rains.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
TIL that if you’re not buying “extra virgin olive oil”, then you’re probably buying oil that was chemically extracted using hexane and other industrial techniques and that is largely devoid of nutritional value.
