The view from Merlet

When the ladies in our group decided to make a concerted foray into the world of gender stereotyping, and waste a whole day of their lives in the shopping centre..... the boys mirrored their approach and fled in the opposite direction.
The Merlet road climbs in a series of zig-zag bends, high up the side of the valley above Chamonix, on the opposite side to the Aiguille Du Midi and Mont Blanc. The road terminates at a zoo (which was shut), but car-parks en route provide spectacular walks, airy viewpoints and countless photo opportunities.
Most importantly of course, they weren't at the shops. This is important because shops are evil and must be avoided.
All of these pictures are best viewed in their full-size - click on an image to enlarge it.
