Gotthardpass - big snow!

In May there has been a lot of snow fall in Switzerland. As a consequence, the passes opened late. Gotthard did open on 30 May, but the road to the top was only open until 11:00. The reason: melting snow.

At the side of the road, there were high walls of snow.

Creating more space for sleeping

The L-shaped bed in the rear provides sleeping space for 2 people - but this is a sleeping for people who do not fancy each other very much... 

So I decided to add some more sleeping space, to build a larger sleeping area, for two people who do like each other very much (I have yet to find someone for this arrangement...) .

And so the new sleeping area will be 1.20 m wide and 1.90m long. It will cover the space where the foldable table is set up. The boards can be stored in the box under the long seat of the L-shaped bench.

Affixing Horizontal Blinds

I like the straight-forward simple look of blinds. They can be turned to let light in/out or block it.

I mounted those blinds at the windows in the "living quarter".

And that is how it looks when the curtains are drawn in addition to the blinds:
