snow covered alps.

 The journey this morning was started out of frustration and ended in Allgaü within sight of the white peaks of the Alps.

There was a spur of the moment decision to visit an old friend, a younger man with a family in the country.

Arrive there and it is his sons birthday , they are having a birthday party, the son is about eight now.

So turn into a kids birthday party crasher. Spend the day chatting, an d telling people about the one time job in the reactor. They all want to know things.

Stay chatting untill eight in the evening, then drive back home.

Tired now, but the view of the snow covered alps was worthwhile.
