I’m writing this on the eve of departure! We will be leaving early tomorrow morning to catch a plane at Bristol airport bound for Geneva. The nerves are starting to jangle a little bit, but mostly we’re just really, really excited!

We’ve got no accomodation pre-booked at all, so it will be a case of getting off the plane, jumping on a train and making our way across the border into France and heading for our start point of Les Houches. There we’re going to have to find somewhere to bed down for the night (probably under a tree on a campsite watching the stars!) before heading straight off on our walk in the morning.

The bags are all packed and now we are just drumming our fingers impatiently. Gaëlle even found time to test the weight of her bag before work this morning. Check out the picture below…
