14th July - Morzine

Today we went to Lac de Montriond after a breakfast of pasta bolognaise. It was so beautiful! We started swimming which was cold in parts but really nice! After about half an hour of swimming and getting half eaten by horseflies, the seven of us (me, Lu, Alex, Rob, Ryan, Harry and George) went canoeing further up the lake. It was only €7 for me and Lu to go in a canoe! Was very tiring after a while though!

When we got back to the chalet, we cooked some pizza and “noisettes” (round potato things) and made cocktails with vodka, juice and grenadine and vodka and chocolate milkshake. Yum! We’d planned to go out for Bastille day (the end of WWII, the French celebrate it) but apparently they celebrate it the night before, we just hadn’t noticed.

Instead we chilled a bit, ate a bit, drank a bit and listened to some music. When mostly everyone had gone to bed, me, Lu, Jay and Harry started to watch Fight Club then went to bed at about 3.
