Today was the first day since I’ve been in France with some blue sky. The morning was the now usual walk through lots of snow and beautiful frozen forests, by afternoon things had warmed up to a pleasant 50 degrees or so. Long walk today, but arrived around 2:30pm only to find that my hotel doesn’t open till 5:00pm and almost nothing else in the whole town is open either. Found a salad for lunch, and now at abandoned terrace near my hotel waiting for them to open.
