So I was just about to get up to date with my blog when I was invited to play bowling with other members of my corridors. So postponing my packing for my trip to Vienna tomorrow, here's what I got up to last weekend. I picked up my mates Dom and Tim from the airport at about 9pm on Friday night, and we went for some food and a drink in the centre of Basel before heading back to Muttenz. It was really great to see them and had an amazing time, I hope they enjoyed themselves (if you're reading this blog let me know!).
So after a lovely lie in on Saturday morning we headed to Langenbruck, in the Baselbiet, where they have a Solarbob. The train journey was quite long, although it wasn't far outside of Basel. It was really great fun, we had several goes, and I got progressively bravier each time, going faster and breaking less. The way up on the Solarbob allowed views of the countryside and many alpine cows. We then headed back to Basel and cooked together in my apartment kitchen (which Dom seemed pretty impressed by) before heading to a restaurant in Muttenz for some drinks. We spent Sunday wandering around Basel, visiting the Tinguely fountain, climbing up the Munster towers, which gave an amazing view of Basel city. The way up was very narrow, and passed by the bells, which rang whilst we were up there. We also went to the Natural History Museum, which was cool, we're all quite sciency, and enjoyed it. Being the leading lights of the University Catholic Society, I had to take them to the English speaking mass in Bruderholz, going via a different tram than usual, so it took a little longer than normal.
I dropped them off Monday evening at the airport, and was sad to see them go. It was really nice to see them and we had a really good catch up.
So off to pack belatedly for my Vienna trip, tune in next week for the write up of that adventure, a trip to the opera might be on the cards,
Love,
