Briançon
... be there on the day that there was a parade through town; we weren’t quite clear what they were celebrating, but it was fun to see them all in costume. We enjoyed walking around the ramparts and seeing all the defensive walls below. We walked the entire way around the town and climbed up fairly high for a good view below. We could also see the other fortresses nearby on the various hillsides. We then wandered through the centre of town, ...
Col d'Izoard

Col de l'Iseran
... Mägge and Hille already well set up. We pulled in beside them in a beautiful little campsite beside a river and only a short walk from town. We decided that since it was their first night there that we would head in to town to find something to eat rather than cooking in camp. We found a nice little pizzeria which was packed, but they managed to squeeze us in. We all ordered various pizzas and Anoop chose one that had an egg on top! When ...
