...to Bournemouth airport in the morning for a flight to Geneva and ride to St Jean d'Aulps where my daughter and her other half will pick me up and take me to the chalet they're staying in at Les Meunieres near Seytroux, France.
Only trouble is, the snow's all gone!

That area's better known for it's white wines, I think, rather than reds.

Snowed last night, it's like a fairytale!
Thawing now at this level but there's a clear snowline o the mountains now. Taken millios of phots.

I'm home, tired but happy and it feels a little odd that last night at midnight I was barbecuing in a mountain car park with campervan people and now I'm home cuddling the cat!
Millions of pics to edit, will put them online later.
