I had to go on a business trip to
Annecy, France so mom & I made a vacation out of it. We hit France,
Switerland & Italy in under two weeks - it was amazing!
|
 We actually went up this mountain in a gondola to
Aiguille du Midi. Mom didn't scream once. This picture shows the glacier - the
largest one in Europe.
|
Here's mom as we start heading up the mountain (no screaming yet)
|
 Yup
- I was there too.
|
 This
was the view as we were leaving the first observation point & heading up
higher.
|
 This
was taken from the gondola - looking down at the village of Chamonix. Not too
shabby!
|
 Look
- we were in Italy too (note the signs are in Italian)
|
Here's mom overlooking wonderful Lake Geneva (and all the Swiss banks in
the background)
|
 Here
we are getting ready to go snowshoeing up in the Alps. Note the little lights
attached to our heads (Paul would be very proud)
|
After snowshoeing, we needed a little refreshment to warm us up a bit.
Thank goodness for some friends.
|
 This
is why we keep Jonathan around - he always has a bottle of alcohol in his
pocket for "emergency" use.
