| Thu 28th Jun 2007 Chamonix 2007: Thursday. Mer de Glace and Flégère We went on a train. To nearly the top of the mountain! Who knew trains went up that high?! There was a pretty huge glacier there (and a hotel!) Then a cable car to the top of Flégère, seemingly held together with gaffer tape. |

| Mon 25th Jun 2007 Chamonix 2007: Monday. A forest walk and some clouds There were some nice looking clouds, so I took some photos. Then we went on a walk through an alpine forest. I was not amused when we got stuck part way up a mountain in a thunder storm. It's ok. I am better now. |

| Sun 24th Jun 2007 Chamonix 2007: Sunday. Views from the flat and Aiguille du Midi It was our first morning and thus our first pastry. Does anyone fancy a drink at 3842 meters? Luckily the french are very good at building bars high up. I needed it to prepare for the ride down. It was terrifying, but gave stunning views. |
