Our hostel

This is the view out the window of the hostel. the sheep come through the street every morning and evening.

The hostel is full of people doing things in the mountains - walkers, cyclists, bikers and tourists. The French just love the mountains and getting out in the fresh air. The cyclists are obviously completely crazy, everywhere we go and in all types of weather you will see groups of cyclists and individuals, it seems that as the roads get steeper there are more cyclists. All ages especially older men and do they look fit !!

We have some beautiful days here and some not so good - as the photos show we walked up into the snow - there was plenty of fresh snow and we had snow fights - and just looked at it and wondered at the beauty of it all. It is fantastic in the middle of Europe to be able to be alone in the mountains.
