Not much to report from the day. Sun and clouds in the morning, steady rain in the afternoon. I listened to Dune for most of the day, followed by checking (and being able to download!) email, then answering it, and blogging.
Russell and Sally walked off to a nearby cafe for lunch and did not return until the late evening. Apparently they found an owner as gregarious as Russell was, and when I called them at 7 to say that dinner was going to be served, they said they were in the middle of a game of Boules (in the rain? Or maybe it was inside??) and that they would have dinner there. In consequence they missed out on another superb meal (Tartiflette... mmmmmm) at Rosuel, but I'm sure they had plenty of fun (and are, as I write, still having it!).
Tomorrow we head into the Parc National de la Vanoise. A short hike of 4-5 hours the first day, followed by a couple of longer hikes. Reception may be spotty, so if there are no blog posts, you'll know why. I'm off for a shower and some horizontal digestive activity... perhaps while finishing off Dune. The weather is supposed to be good for the next several days, so no need to keep it for the trail!
