hornussen

As the winners of the previous team event, me and Paul ("the Americans") were responsible for planning the next team event and we planned to play hornussen. Hornussen (which I had never heard of before) is the sport of Swiss farmers. There is really no way to describe this sport, so just watch the youtube video if you are interested.

Just happy to hit the dang hornuss

It was a cold, cloudy, and somewhat rainy day, but we managed to stay dry and the sun actually came out by the end of the day!



 

The whole team

 

After hornussen, we went back to Burgdorf for dinner in the cellar of a brewery there. After beers and wine, we headed back to Zurich and ended up at Paddy's.
