Our Lovely French Breakfasts

 

Each of the places where we are staying have served us a traditional French breakfast of croissants, bread, jam, ham, cheese, fruit juice, and coffee. It is so wonderful to not have to worry about eating these delicious items knowing that we will be shortly burning hundreds of calories hiking. Or at least we haven't been worried.

We have been purchasing a few items for lunches at the grocery stores in each of the towns - some good bread (which I never eat at home), cheese, oranges,etc.

We've really enjoyed the food and the time to review our hike for the day. An interesting aside - even though we've been in Switzerland since the first day of the hike, French is spoken in most of the villages we are passing through. Towards the end of our hike, the language will transition to German. However, we don't have any strong German speakers in our group either:-)
