A beautiful week in Val d’Isère…. Autumn always suits the village. The upper peaks are capped with snow whilst the trees on the lower mountainsides slowly turn the most glorious colours. Yellow, red and orange splashes of colour are everywhere. The evergreens stay green however serving only to enhance the overall impression of an artist’s palate of colourful paints.
The weather has been glorious all week with mild temperatures for the time of year. However, things are forecast to change somewhat radically. Temperatures are to drop, the skies are forecast to cloud over and …. wait for it .. snow is forecast all next week. Now that’s music to our ears! With the resort opening for the winter season in four weeks time a « dump » of white stuff is just what we need.
I’ll keep you posted as soon as the flakes begin to fall … watch this space
See you soon
