Excellent walking this morning. Then we crested the pass and arrived at Tignes ski area, one of the biggest and best in Europe. Dropped to an extensive complex of condos and shops, bought dinner and some picnic supplies.
10 minutes out of "town" we found a campsite and started to settle in. Jim discovered that his boots are worn through in part of the sole, so he quickly returned to town, with about 25 minutes until the stores close. He's there now while I wait at the campsite.
If he can't find shoes tonight we'll try tomorrow morning. We reserved a campsite and dinner for tomorrow night at a refuge about 10 miles and 3000 feet of gain from here. So even if we shop for shoes tomorrow we should have enough time to get there!
Great weather today. Rain in the forecast for tomorrow.
Our biggest entertainment today was walking with five 8-14 year old girls who had just collected their five donkeys from the field. Jim titled the photo "five girls and six donkeys"
We're happy and healthy and hoping for shoe solutions!
