chamonix is nice and cool.. tho its a killer gettign here. 6h on the train.. the tgv is alright (cuz we bought the 1st class railpass).. but the ter (regional train) is bad!!!! the train is SUPER DUPER HOT.. whats with europeans and nt wanting to install air cons.. so u get like 20 ppl in a carriage and windows tat cant really open and everybody sweating.. grr..

tat's why u always c ppl sitting outside of their hses in summer -- cuz its far too hot to stay in their rooms..

took cable cars to get up the mountains.. they SUCK!! hhahaa quite scary lor.. the cable car up to aiguille du midi was very crowded.. like 60 ppl squeeze in..s o cant breathe etc.. and we're standing and every time it passes by the tower holding the cable up, there'll b a period of free fall.. and the kids will very shang lian and scream.. lolz.. but it's fun.. only tat when the sun comes in it's SUPER hot and u cant move and u'll juz swelter and die..

richard n i on the top of Aiguille du Midi.. it gives a gd view of mt blanc.. nt that the view behind us is.. but it juz looked nice :D



and here's mt blanc.. haha i've part of the view fr the room window :D



the mer du glace (sea of ice)!! it's like a gigantic ice berg on the mountains and they drilled holes into it.. so it's a cave tat;s surronded by ice.. but too bad the poor thg is melting :( oh well..



today i went up le brevent.. it's abt 2500m abv sea level.. nicer view than the previous days.. got into the mood of zi pai-ing cuz i was bored.. haha but nt bad sia ;)

oh and it rained last nite.. so mt blanc has a ice river today.. :D so nice!! too bad nv go mer du glace today.. cuz it shd b v v pretty today..
