Hello, if you are wondering what is the meaning of the title, let me help you: Snowshoes and Igloo building. Yep, as it sounds, the last weekend I went to the mountains around Altdorf, the home town of William Tell (Wilhelm Tell)...Do you remember? The guy, the child and the apple...It was a great tour and extremely funny. Here you have some pictures to enjoy (or envy, jejeje)...

Me olvidaba de Filu! Campeón Suizo de Agilidad. / I forgot Filu! Swiss Agility Champion.
Allá van! (dentro del "tomatito" = luftseilbahn) / We are on the move (inside the "capsule"= luftseilbahn)

Finalmene nos pudmos sacar las raquetas y...empezar a cavar!! / Finally the snowshoes went off and...we started digging!!Para construir un iglu se necesita: una calera de bloques (la zanja) y mucha pasciencia para armarlo./ To build an Igloo you need: A quarry for the blocks (the ditch) and a lot of patience to setup the Igloo.
De aquí salían los ladrillos: simplemente la pared de la zanja que cavamos. / The blocks came out from the wall of the ditch...ganz einfach!!

Antes de dormir: Nuestro Iglu desde afuera, en la noche...increíble lo que un par de velas pueden hacer! / Before going to bed: Our Iglu in the night, outside view...amazing what two candles can do.
