How do people that are out of shape handle that? I would have enough trouble, and I would hope with all the hill climbing I do I would at least be in as good of shape as the average German. And hauling your groceries up there every week too, along with your drinking water? I could probably handle it with great difficulty for a short period, maybe.

People here will circle a parking lot for 10 minutes, to find a spot that's a few feet closer to the door.
