Lac Blanc near Chamonix. The first day of our tour around Mont Blanc. My wife insisted to go up there; some hours later, she regretted bitterly as she hobbled down in the dark, no lamp, knees hurting, dead tired.

One of the best moments I had when I walked around Mont Blanc was when we came to a col on a foggy day and passed a group of Japanese tourists just as the fog lifted and you could see the fantastic view. They burst out oh and an-ing snd even laughing while they thanked the relieved guide.

Bach. Both easy to listen to and a never ending trove of new discoveries. Emotional and yet silly. Spiritual even for an atheist. Simple yet cerebral. Occasionally melancholy yet always life affirming. Rule bound, yet jazzy.
