Snowy solstice

Uncomfortably early to St Pancras in torrential rain. We get through passport control in no time and end up waiting for over an hour to get on the train.

The journey to Môutiers is blissfully stress free. Get on, sit down, relax for seven hours, arrive. There’s a taxi waiting and we’re in our apartment before six. Even so, tonight we’ll eat out at La Face - fondue, goats cheese salad, lasagne, pizza. Great.
