If you think there was snow in Montpellier. No way. With 10C it is too mild. But we made a trip to the Cevennes Mountains, direction Mont Aigoual ( >1200m). Scenic drive, but weather was not so sweet. I also programmed the navigation system wrong and we drove the shortest distance, which means, we used also some unusual roads. But it was fun. Narrow roads, wide enough for one car, climbing up the hills, nice turns and scenic views. Unfortunately the rest of the road was blocked and we can’t go further. So we stopped at a parking where just some leftover snow was left and temperature was 0C. Of course too cold for the kids 🙂 They were complaining that they want snow and ice before. When they heard there was snow and ice in germany, they wanted to see it here was well. But when we told them that there are -10C in germany they were ok with what they saw…
On the way back we filled up the car. The first time ever that I paid less then 1 Euro for Super 95, 99.8Cent and Diesel was 89,8 Cent (EURO). Amazing. It was that low in 2004 the last time.
Now we are going through some sickness (cold, sinus) and we are waiting for New Years Day.
