Chamonix

I went on a weeks ski trip in Chamonix. For those who don't know, Chamonix was the first town to host the winter olympics. This was in fact my question for R32 000 on Who Wants to be a Millionnaire, which I did not know at the time. Spending a week in Chamonix would not make you know that either, with no sign of olympic ski jumps or bobsled routes to be seen!

Ah, the old London phone booth rears its head.

Brrr, icicles galore.

Ah-hem, a sure sign that the English have been visiting!

Have you ever seen a church with a moustache?

Although I pretty much spent most of the time skiing, without too much time for otther exploring, I did fit in a beautiful stroll along the river on the last day. Very pleasant indeed, but with all the trudging through the snow, I sure wished my hiking boots didn't have a whopping great hole in them!
