Why has it got so cold? we said to each other as we arrived at the side of Lake Geneva in the pouring rain and mist!. Couldn't see a thing but convinced ourselves we were in a lovely area. Almost two days of steady rain and bitterly cold winds (we were in shorts the other day) so out came the winter clothing again to add another layer. It was like living in the mountains we said!. Woke up this morning to sunshine and this massive mountain region in front of us across the lake with snow topped peaks!.. ahhh, of course, we are in the Alps after all and the ski resorts are still open and what with the Northerly winds that was where all the cold was coming from!.. talk about rookie campers!. Also could be a reason why we are the only ones out 'camping'!. We are taking Piccolo out today to climb a mountain hopefully as long as the weather holds and to get some views. The site we are on is lovely and a beautiful spot with heated showers.. thank goodness!. We need to make the decision now whether to stay high in the Alps or chicken out and head down to the South Coast to pick up some warmer weather.
Au Revoir!
