Lin met us at Turin airport having hung around for far too long as our flight was delayed, and she managed to not take a book.  She won’t do that again!  We made excellent time back to the Chalet and there were Chris and Chelsea sitting on the patio in the sun as we arrived.  Chris was feeding the birds and we were amazed to see a jay come so close, just for a whistle and a peanut.  The views from the Chalet were particularly captivating with the garden blending into the adjacent alpine meadows and stretching into the mountains and distant villages of Le Bez and Villeneuve.  After the full guided tour and much chatting we sat down to Chris’s scrummy and tasty fajitas for dinner, with wine of course – the perfect end to our first evening.
