Reply to "Pre-LMC trip to the Swiss Alps"

So last day of the Pre-LMC Tour. Today I would pick up my wife in Lyon and drive to Dorgogne to meet all the rest of the partticpants. An almost 1000 km drive, and the initial part in the Swiss Alps at maybe 30 km/h. I could have saved maybe 50 km, but a Dane I briefly know that lives in Switzerland recommended to go via Sion for the scenery, so I did. Helen’s flight schedule meant that I got up at 5 am, packed and drove off. The weather was a bit better than yesterday, but there was drizzle and low clouds. And I had to drive through my least favorite pass on the way: Furka, the one with the massive drop and inadequate guardrails.

So on slippery roads I took it easy. And when I got up the mountain I drove into the low clouds
