Today it rained. Today it rained a lot. After festering in the apartment for most of the day we decided to visit the climbing wall in Les Houches.
Les Houches Climbing Wall
It was very busy – only the foolish would have attempted climbing outdoors today – and there seemed to be a lot of muscles on display, from both men and women. I felt quite inferior for a while, but then felt a little smug as at least I didn’t look as daft as the bear chested beeny clad youths!!
There was plenty to have a go at and things quietened down towards the evening, but by then my arms were knackered.
In fact they were so knackered I couldn’t possibly lift a saucepan, so we simply had to eat out…. which of course included desert – gâteau de chocolat.
A suitably named wine

The wall at Les Houches looks good……… did Pete have his top off
?
I notice 2 spoons in the pic with the chocolate gateau….. surely you didn’t share one
Ian – I think the two spoons indicate that the gateau is what Pete ordered
I think this blog should be renamed “Cake Adventures”.
Pete didn’t take his top off – nor did I!!
Indeed, Pete ordered the cake, but I managed to help him out just a little – tho’ I really was quite caked out by then!
= very round fat face with no cheek bones showing at all!!!
We ate fewer cakes than it might appear me thinks!
But, the main problem is that any other sane person just wishes they could have eaten them too!
Is that cream or custard?
It’s custard – cold custard – it wasn’t that nice actually; the last cake of the holiday was the least nice.
