Up and over

Last night we stayed in Le Fouly which has one hotel, L’edelweiss, which has the the best views from our balcony that we have seen so far.

.

Btw, above is the famous edelweiss flower (not what I imagined).

Today’s challenge was simple: Start climbing to the highest point of Tour du Mont Blanc (2537 meters), climb steadily 3,300 feet, step into Italy, promptly climb back down ’til you reach a Gelato parlor, enjoy, and you are done.

Sounds good to me! Did I forget to mention walking 25 KM? Piece of cake, or should I say, a cup of delicious Italian gelato.

Here we go for today’s story.

Tomorrow is a rest day! Just in time!
