Our next leg of the journey went without any real hitches. The roads from Troyes to Dijon were a dream, quiet and smooth ,passing through sleepy villages. After a few stops for picnics and fuel we arrived at Bourg en Bresse by mid afternoon.
Not a lot going on this town so we took life easy in a local bar then and early night.

Next day we were on the road by 9am. It turned out to be a spectacular journey. Every twist and turn of the road brought a new scene, each one more amazing than the last.
Finally we arrived at our next stop high up in the French Alps. We had booked a wooden hut overlooking mountain views. A few minutes drive away was the town of LA Rossiere. A typical ski resort but now boasting 34 degrees C .

After a relaxing evening there watching the sunset over the snow clad mountains it was early to bed. The cool night air up there was very welcome.
