Week Nine

We rode a Gondola up to 2500m where the views over the valley were pretty spectacular (yes, we actually remembered our camera).

Anna and I have had week nine off due to self catered guests. What else to do in Chamonix with a free week but ski your little bum off, so we did. The highlights were a magnificent day at 'Brevent' and seeing an extreme outdoor event at 'Les Grand Montets'. The event showcased a group of crazies skiing off cliffs and paragliding or wing suiting from a helicopter. World famous extremists descend on Chamonix from far and wide for this event, all overloading heavily on adrenaline, meanwhile I was happy to spend the week overloading on cheese. At the rate I am going I'll have a naturally forming wing suit of my own, very extreme.

Madness, their mums must be worried.


Eating well...no need for my mum to worry.
