Zagan the motorhome has mountains out of his widescreen windscreen, we parked at the aire in Les Saisies Ski Resort (N45.76203, E6.53371<\/a>) on the Route des Grandes Alpes, but the beauty is a bit lost on us at the moment. We’ve already said that we’ll have to revisit this area another time.<\/p>\n

\"Motorhome<\/p>\n

After those very difficult days in Bourg Saint Maurice when Charlie was struggling, we had to leave the morning after he was put to sleep. There were too many memories on the campsite, not that he ventured more than five metres from our pitch the whole time we were there, but we kept expecting to look out and see him.<\/p>\n

While on the campsite, we’d met David and Carrie who are legends in the world of rock climbing, they\u00a0write loads of books about where to climb<\/a> and were in the middle of researching one while they were there. As we were leaving they kindly suggested somewhere to go, and when you get a recommendation from someone who knows the area so well, you take it. Thankfully our route didn’t take us past the vets, but as we set off out of the valley our eyes filled with tears as we were leaving Charlie behind. I can’t recall how many times I said goodbye to him as I desperately tried to capture a photo of the town where he would always remain.<\/p>\n

We followed the Route des Grandes Alpes to Les Chapieux (N45.69526, E6.73408<\/a>) and found ourselves at the end of the Torrent des Glaciers. At the end of the road a sign said no camping as the area was prone to flooding. We could have guessed that from the name, but there were about 30 motorhomes scattered around the valley floor parking area, so we joined them. There was no phone signal or internet connection anywhere in the valley, which was just what we needed. Beautiful messages of condolence had been pouring in, and in time we’ll re-read them and fully appreciate them, but at that moment they just reminded us of what we had lost.<\/p>\n

\"motorhome

Parking up we went for a short walk around the few buildings that were Les Chapieux and then retreated back to Zagan. As we opened the door we both expected to hear a bark welcoming us, none came, but tears did. In truth we weren’t sure what to do with ourselves. Charlie was so ingrained in our lives, especially over the last month or so when he was really poorly, that all our time and attention had been on him. The last time we had left him alone was over two weeks ago and that was only for a couple of hours while we had a meal out as an early birthday celebration for Jay. We were in a beautiful place with amazing walks on our doorstep, so Jay suggested we walk up the valley. With a feeling of guilt we both left, locking Zagan and putting the alarm on, something we haven’t done on this trip.<\/p>\n

Over a few hours we walked, we talked, and sobbed occasionally. Holding hands we realised how far apart we had become over these past months and the healing process began. We crossed over water flowing down the hillside and I picked up a few stones and stacked them on a nearby rock. Charlie loved to rescue stones from the sea on the beach, so I felt this was a fitting tribute to him in a most beautiful place.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

We ventured out a couple of other times while we were there because, like baby birds testing out their wings, we need to get used to this new found freedom. Jay completed another training run back along the road we’d walked the following morning, with his charity race less than a week away<\/a> he is now easing off on the distances he is doing. I am so proud of how he has kept up his training through everything we’ve been through – he tells me that the running his helping to keep him sane, but I know it has been hard.<\/p>\n

Dotted across the hillsides around us were two types of cows – La Tarine (the brown ones) and L’Abondance (the brown ones with white faces) – which are used to make Beaufort cheese. We’d seen it advertised in several places, the town of Beaufort was just up the road, and we both wanted a mobile signal to speak to our families, so we set off after Jay’s run.\u00a0 The drive took us past a huge turquoise lake and around what seemed like a million hairpin bends.<\/p>\n

Luckily Jay drove superbly so I didn’t have to jump out at any of the tight spots<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Arriving in Beaufort we opted for a small parking area next to the river (N45.71968, E6.56971<\/a>), and while it was free, they still ask you to pay the Tourist Tax if you are staying the night. So armed with a completed form and 0.50c (it’s \u20ac0.22 each but we didn’t have the right change) we set off for the tourist office and to have a look around the town.<\/p>\n

\"motorhome<\/p>\n

The temperature was in the low 30’s, but we no longer have to worry about seeking shade to keep Charlie cool, so in another test of our baby bird wings, we decided to stay for a couple of days. In the centre of the town is the Beaufort Co-Operative where they make the cheese. Small lorries with shining tanks on the back drive in and out all day, collecting the milk from the 170 farms in the co-operative.<\/p>\n

\"Beaufort,

Beaufort is gearing up for the Tour de France which will come through here on the 18th July<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Even ‘Beaufort man’ in a large cheese is getting in the spirit of things<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Beaufort<\/p>\n

Inside the cooperative there is an exhibition area telling you all about how they make the cheese which you can visit for free. You can also pay \u20ac2 to go around the factory, but we weren’t in the mood, and having already been around the Pag cheese factory in Croatia<\/a> we didn’t feel like we were missing out. Instead we stood looking through the glass wall down into the factory and watched transfixed as the huge Meules<\/em> of cheese were covered in cloth, turned and stacked. Each Meule<\/em> takes around 400 litres of milk to make and weighs 40 kilos so no wonder they had a machine to do the turning and stacking.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

As with all good free places to look around, you leave via the shop where we got to taste all the types of Beaufort, and a few others, before plumping for a \u20ac6 slice of our favourite. As the wheels of cheese they make are so over 50cm in diameter, the slices are big and usually cost way more than that. Don’t worry if you find yourself in Beaufort and the factory and shop are shut, outside they have a vending machine full of the stuff with prices ranging from \u20ac10 to \u20ac40, all accompanied by the strong smell of a mature cheese.<\/p>\n

\"Beaufort<\/p>\n

Last night there was one super bright star in the sky just after the sun set, I know it was the planet Venus, I looked it up, but somehow to me it felt like was Charlie telling me that he’s OK and at peace now. I may sound crazy to those of you who have never lost a pet, but setting off this morning, the feeling that we were getting further away from Charlie was a bit less than it was last time we moved, and I guess it will be less again when we move tomorrow.<\/p>\n

We had planned to head across closer to Chamonix today, but as we drove past the motorhomes parked up at Les Saisies we decided to stop. We paid our \u20ac8 for 24 hours stretched those wings again with a walk up to a nearby col. We sat on a bench in the sunshine and stared out over the ‘big’ mountains in the distance, all snow capped and looking like they are a painted on back drop.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Returning to the van it wasn’t until I was putting a packet in the bin that I realised I hadn’t expected Charlie to be here when we returned. A wave of guilt consumed me, it’s only been four days and already I am starting to forget him. Fortunately while Jay was writing his beautiful eulogy to our little man<\/a>, I wrote a list of all the things I miss about him – it’s currently around nine pages long, but at least I know I won’t forget all those little things I took for granted every day.<\/p>\n

So that’s it, my first blog post without Charlie – although he does feature rather heavily, sorry about that. I kept putting off writing it as I don’t want to move on without him, but I know we need to. We need to form a new way of life, stretch our wings, establish new routines and at some point make new plans. What those plans will be, we have no idea, but we’ll let you know as soon as we do.<\/p>\n
