4th European Speleological Conference, Villard en Lans

Karen and I drove to Birmingham Airport to board an Air France Bombardier C100 50 seater to fly to Lyon. Once there we picked up the Citroen C3 hire car we had booked and drove to the Gite at Les Frier near Villard de Lans.
Boyd and Jenny had already arrived earlier in the day and had gone to Lans en Vercors to visit the Speleo Conference. We contacted Pete Collins and Keith, who had flown from Stanstead to Lyon, by mobile phone and as they were on the way, Karen and I decided to wait at the Gite until they arrived soon after in the early evening.
Once they had arrived and unpacked their car, we went to look for supermarkets (Karen and I had stopped at one already on the way - but Pete and Keith hadn't) and register for the Conference at Lans en Vercors. We then went out for a Pizza in Villard de Lans.
