KTM break down (Interlaken TAS - 03/04)

That starts now, the KTM seemed to be reliable, but it, now, fits to its
image of non-reliability: the fuel pump did not start anymore.
I opened the fuel pump system and everything seems connected.
I set everything back and it worked again... no explanation...

Breakfast preparation (Interlaken TAS - 03/04)

Warming Lunch break (Liawenee TAS - 02/04)

Following the hounds

Hello!!

After this hard work, the horses are rewarded with nice food and fresh water:

This is a tradition, nothing has been hunted:
1-One Master has a skin of wallabie soaked with anise alcohol at the end of a rope.
2-He is making the way with the smell of anise.
3- The hounds are released and run after this smell.
4- We are galoping after these hounds.
