July 3, 2017: Refuge Alfred Wills and Col d'Anterne

On my family's hut-to-hut trip in the Alpes a year ago we went from soggy and cold condtions – here are my kids drinking tea and eating blackberry tarts at the Refuge Alfred Wills to deal with the inclement weather on July 2 –

to bright, sunny, and warm conditions on July 3.

We even got peeks at Mont Blanc through the clouds from the Col d'Anterne.

So much fun. We'll remember this trip forever.
