She ain't happy!
We also explored more the French Jura mountains around the Col de la Facille. As Sylvia tells it: “Uli picked out a “nice hike,” level along the ridge (“balcon du lac”), with great views. In reality, we had to hike across ridges, mostly no view for all the trees, and eventually he got lost and we had to scramble up and down rather steep slopes. It was 5pm, and I (Sylvia) already saw myself fed to the wolves or other inhabitants of the forest.” Needless to say, this did not go over too well! We did see the gondola to Petit Mont Rond, which inspired us to return next day. Sylvia took the cabine up and I hiked the not too long and pleasant road up. From Mount Rond we had great views across the Geneva basin and the lake, and enjoyed coffee and a bite to eat. None too late: when we took off again, the waiter just wrote “A la neige” onto the menu board: This was in fact the last day of the 
saison until the skiers will invade the place again in December. So we took the last ride down.
I guess it did drive home that our stay here is also limited: 2 months to go.
