It has been warm, very warm, since we arrived in Wengen on Friday, but for the last couple of days we have had thunderstorms as well. Last night, the lightening crackled around the valley and woke us in the early hours.
Today, we planned to play tennis in the morning, but the overnight rain had left the courts with some deep and wide puddles. We beat a retreat homewards, just missing more rain. The sun came out though and we managed our game in the early afternoon. Shortly after we finished, the bad weather returned. This evening, the thunder is rumbling and the rain has been intense.
It is almost dark now. It is fine at the moment, but the clouds are threatening. Tomorrow promises more of the same.
