2016 England and France
Alpine flowers
Sorting through some photos and this one is superlative. Everything here makes you want walk, run, swim, move move move!!

Lac Bleu
Two hour hike to lunch in the Alps. Don’t pinch me!

Mountain to myself at 2200m
I rode the upper gondola down and slogged back up a couple hundred meters. There’s no one within a quarter mile. Just this view, the sun, the wind… I believe I’ve discovered the perfect spot for a siesta . . .
ɕ
2700m
Granted, I ascended by gondola, but the view is still impressive!

Bonjour Courchevel
This. This is the view… from the window of my room. D8 Caution: Increased rate of ‘grams is imminent!!! #ohmygawdfrenchalps #nofilter

Au revoir England
Leaving St Pancras station this morning en route to Paris. When I was in high school, I saw a TV show (yes, pre-internet) about some crazy engineers who were going to try tunneling thru the chalk under the channel. “How awesome would it be to ride THAT train?!” Bit sad to say goodbye to all my friends (old and new) in London, but we will meet again! Allez! Allez!

Did you say ‘climbing challenge’?!
Blane setup several climbing challenges in our last session. This was the easiest, but so fun! Was hangin as the coppers rolled by… “and you sir! how old are you?! You should know better!”

Parkour Mecca
London’s infamous Chainstore!

Chalk Study with Tourist
“A bit more… more… just. one. more. step . . .” Found another visitor to swap photos with!

Where there’s tea, there’s hope
Turns out the awesome-meter goes to 11. Sea breeze, France is just visible across the Channel… and Kentish Tea. Yes, ok, it’s kitschy, but I _am_ a tourist.

The White Cliffs of Dover
Another thing I thought I’d never see! I came straight from Heathrow …just hiked two hours from the train station at Dover Priory. TOTALLY worth it.
ɕ
Allo Allo! London calling…
Across the pond. But before I meet up with some other ‘Yanks tomorrow, I’ve a bucket list item to tick off. Heathrow, to Paddington station, to St Pancras station, to a certain Southeastern traing . . .
ɕ
The Puffin
My trusty pack looks like a Puffin, no? Our next adventure begins in London at RDV. Tracy will be catching up w us next week… in the Alps. #swirlsonthemove rep’in #lvpk for this leg of the journey!
