We have Internet and phone service for the first time in a few days; we were pretty remote on the first couple days of our Haute Route adventure.
We are trying to make the 830 bus this morning out of Arolla, so no time for a full update, but so far we have bus/train/bussed from Chamonix to Fionnay, hiked from Fionnay to Cabane Louvie (short but lovely hike), did a YUCKY hike – look in websters, I think the definition of yucky is “the hike from Cabane Louvie to Cabane Prafleuri”, and after a long hike yesterday left the ‘moonscapes’ behind us and reentered the green quaint Swiss villages we love… In Arolla last night.
We’ve met people from all over, Vancouver , Alberta, Alaska, Washington, Ohio, Ireland, England, France, Switzerland, Japan, and many more that we didn’t get to where they were from.
Must run, still having a fantastic trip, more pics soon!
