A break from packing

 Our friends Jill and Francois with us this weekend which has given us a welcome relief from packing and putting away stuff for our upcoming trip to Canada.
 Today we thought a trip up the mountain behind our house would be a good day out. The top is around 1130 meters high we only got as far as the first parking place, about 700 meters when we reached the snow. Just around this corner the road was packed snow, no good for our Honda with low profile tyres. 
 A bit of mountain sun and air, back down the mountain for an early lunch, baguette, pâté, fromage and a bottle of Rioja.   
 Gotta make the best of a bad job - - snow in April in the South of France.   Must be something to do with this climate change thing.
