Yesterday we were going to do a light reprise of a walk we did last year - that is, doing the first 350 metres of a long walk we did last year, but turning right instead of left and walking another 500 metres before returning to the start.
Instead, we had lunch half way up a mountain after riding the cable car, then caught the chairlift to the start of the walk before deciding it was all too much effort and returning by the same means.
When we left the apartment Cauterests was misty and damp and dull, but half way up in the cable car we emerged through the cloud into bright sunshine. In this photo you can see where Cauterets is, even if you can't see it.
By the time we arrived back four hours later the cloud was gone and Cauterets was warm and sunny. This photo shows the cloud breaking up. The restaurant we ate at is the buiding seemingly on the edge of the precipice, and in the middle of the horizon the Pic de Midi.
