Although I haven’t finished the blogs of my
Alaska/Canada trip, I am home – and up in the mountains finally enjoying clear
skies and a wonderfully sunny day.
This morning I took my usual walk in the woods - admiring as always the flowers in the garden of the last house before the forest.

| Pink Peony - as large as it looks! |
 |
| A huge white peony |
 |
| light pink one |
 |
| larger than life |
Then after lunch it was go buy my season pass for the
cable car and check out the flowers and paths of the upper mountain (the cable
car is only working for July/August) while I could.

| The Grand Combin through a telescope |

| La Golette as seen from La Creusaz |
It is one of the rare times that I was able
to see the wild rhododendrons still in bloom and the blueberries are coming on
nicely.
 |
| wild small rhodos |
 |
| alpine flowers |
 |
| green blueberries |
As it’s a Monday I was alone in the cable
car and met very few others in the small village at the top – the silence was
intriguing – barely any birds to break it and my mood relaxed as I brought back
the calm.
