Random shots from today's instalment of 'Driving Through Switzerland in the Rain'. Bit of a theme forming here!

Driving the Susten Pass (2,264m) in rain & fog. You'd think it would suck but: wow! Love me some misty mountains!

Beaut day up the Tourmalet, if a tad breezy. Obligatory banana gets defocused as little fluffy clouds look nicer

Welcome to Lyon! This is why we usually avoid cities, but GPS says it's best way North. Doh! 
Cool clouds though.
Saturday 3 October 2015
View down to Arreau as we drive the Col d'Aspin. The clouds rolled over as we climbed so was a bit nippy up the top!
