We attempted to make it here today, but I had such a bad headache we ended up pulling over on the side of the road near a river in the mountains dividing France and Italy. The rock colours were very cool to see. Some were striped purple and white and others were burgundy. The next morning we took up the drive again. It was very windy and we did have to stop a few times because of sheep being on the road. When we arrived at the tunnel connecting France to Italy we had to wait 10 minutes before we could pass through. France was warm mostly, no snow anywhere except on some distant mountain tops and you could tell that even those parts were becoming green. Once we popped out of the tunnel and into Italy, it was a drastic change. There was about 2-3 feet of snow everywhere and it wasn’t for awhile before the snow stopped and we started to see the grass again. The place we stopped at was nice; it provided us with free electricity, and a complete service station. There was an amazing sunset that night, something we have rarely seen on this trip.
