Wednesday 20th February 2013
We haven’t had many days off which have been beautiful and
sunny. Today was different and instead of driving off down the valley we stayed
local and walked for a few hours from Les Carroz to Araches through the woods along
pisted paths used by sledgers, dog walkers, cross country skiers and people walking using
racquettes.
It was a beautiful walk with stunning views down to the river
bed below and across to the mountain range on the opposite side of the valley. Subtle
information signs tell of the local flora and fauna and the rock formations,
all in French though!
Fresh snow hasn’t fallen since Sunday so the paths were really
easy to walk on. Off the paths though the snow is very deep and there are
beautiful crystal formations glistening in the sun.
Back at our studio we ate our lunch al-fresco on our balcony
after which Dave went out boarding. I started packing up our belongings as
we will soon be leaving Les Carroz - it will be good to get on the road again.
Looks amazing! Where are you off to next? x
