TMB Day 7 - La Fouly to Champex.
Word for the day - Relaxed.
Woke to light rain but knowing that we had a short day, we took our time with breakfast and set off at 10 am. By this time the rain had stopped and we had a very pleasant day stopping for lunch in Issert and arriving in Champex by mid afternoon. Most of the day was spent walking the valley next to a river with a final 1.5 hour ascent to Champex - lovely village on a mountain lake. We are at Hotel du Glacier and having a beer with the Irish lads at the Alpin Club Bar and restaurant. Updating the blog and adding photos has been a real challenge!
