From the beach to the Alps

Last few days in Provence were pretty chill with a visit to the market and lots of pool time.

It’s pretty crazy that a short 5 hour drive took from tropical, azur beaches with palm trees and cactus, to snow capped mountains. The weather here is still hot, but nights are cool and the snow is pretty high up amd patchy where we are.

View from our chalet balcony

We are in Morzine which is a hopin town much like Banff…but way less tourists. All the buildings are built in true Alps style with vertical wood paneling and large shutters.

Bought a week pass for the lifts which will guide what we do all week. 17 lifts connect up and down mountain sides and vallry to valley, with a few running into Switzerland.

Yesterday took 2 close ones for some pretty awesome views of the valley below, as well and many Alpine meadows. Kendra has already found several Aloine cows with bells:)
