For years, we have talked about skiing in France, this year we finally got there. Our final European ski destination of the 2021/2022 ski season was in 3 Vallees, France.
Fulfillment of the Dream – Skiing Les 3 Vallees of France
From Tunnel Vision In Italy to Seeing Green in Grenoble
The next stop on our European ski trip was not for skiing. Instead, we went to visit a friend in Grenoble on our way to skiing in France. Neither of us had been to Grenoble and we were looking forward to exploring someplace new.
A Four Day Journey Of High Altitude and High Anxiety
Our latest journey has taken us back to Europe for a much delayed European ski adventure. But before we could enjoy the skiing, we had to take care of some business. In all, it took us four days to get from the Bay Area to our hotel in the Dolomites.
Travel Plans for 2022 with More Bucket List Items
Our roving retirement travels in 2021 taught us a few lessons, the most significant is that we need to travel slower in the future. This year we had 59+ travel days. That means that we slept in at least that many beds, and that is definitely too much.
La Cité, the Unique Walled City of Carcassonne
We have been looking forward to visiting Carcassonne, on our roving retirement journey, since we were in France in 2020. Both Diana and I had visited many years ago and we only remembered the climb up the hill, the “fairy tail” walls, and the cassoulet. This time we chose to stay inside the city walls of Carcassonne, to maximize our time in situ.
