Scenic route

We had another very attractive drive from Aix to Spencer's third mission area in St. Etienne, just to the west of Lyon. As we went north the traffic increased, and the internet sent us on an alternative route along the D-820.

Very attractive became quite something else during this always to be remembered little stretch of road, as we made our way through the Mont Pilat range, and the Pilat Regional Natural Park, at the eastern marches of the Massif Central.

Amateurs madly and vainly snapping pictures out of car windows don't do justice to this kind of thing. This one image does give some sense of it, though. Lovely!
