Graydon an Alpine Village in the Haute Savoie


Bob planned a walk for Julie and I telling us he had packed us a picnic.  We had a great 6 mile walk and Julie did 16,000 steps, I certainly did not do as many but I am taller. The scenery was spectacular. We saw an eagle, heard Marmots, saw bees, butterflies and a variety of wild flora. On our way up a steep slope we met a French couple harvesting cumin.

Our picnic site overlooked the valley but the rain storm blocked out the view of Mont Blanc. The picnic table was like furniture from an Alice in Wonderland stage-set before she drank the magic potion that shrunk her in size. The picnic table design obviously focuses on the needs of the winter season when the snow raises the ground level.

Bob sets the pace.......
