The skies were grey and there was rain in the air... not a lot to do but go for an explore...
We drove out through Morzine towards Lake Geneva, and down towards Evian-les-bains, A pause to take in the lake, with the clouds concealing the mountain tops all around, an also to see the river feeding the Evian bottling plant !!
Taking the lakes side road, we drove into Switzerland and cut back towards Martigney, as we drove down here there was an opportunity to drive back into the mountains heading towards Abondance, a name I had seen around, but never visited.. this would take us back to the Morzine road and thence back to the gite.
not much to be seen as a lot of the route was in cloud, but did give us an impression of hte size and extent of the Portes du Soleil on both sides of the border.
Welcome to my world of days out. This diary of stories is recorded for my own record - recollections that I cannot guarantee are complete or even if things have been remembered incorrectly. I have added some graphs to the end at the page to show the increase in distances attained as I got fitter and more ambitious now regular weekly walking is more feasible. This pages shows a summary of the latest entries - for indexes use the button bar below.
