Although we had a little more snow overnight down to 1800m, (5,900ft), I finally decided to do a walk from home in our valley. Unusually, I didn’t check the forecast before setting off and it was a little chilly with clouds covering many of the mountain tops. But I needn’t have worried as the sun eventually burnt them away, to leave perfectly blue skies all around. 😊
Yes, I was slightly surprised to see so many gentians – especially the Trumpet ones (as they are usually a lot higher). But Jude reminded me that we went for a walk around the same sort of area on her birthday (which is tomorrow) last year and we saw a lot more flowers and butterflies: https://alittlebitoutoffocus.com/2020/05/26/alpine-flora-and-butterfly-walk-val-dherens-switzerland/ So everything is well behind here. But the forecast suggests a sudden increase in temperatures on Friday… 🤞🤞
Thanks Hanna. I was lucky really as the weather hasn’t been that great recently. Glad you liked the views!

Yep – green, brown, white, blue and orange. Though that is the only green one in Switzerland. 😊
