Dad and I visited Chamonix together for the first time. Aiguille du Midi and Grand Montets as well as Chambre Neuf and great meals at Le Monchu and La Bergerie. Dad gave us a little health scare with an angina attack on the Montets giving me a busmans holiday and him a ride down to Chamonix in the Alouette 3 from the PGHM. He's fine though - our thoughts go to the climbers who lost their lives on the same day and in the avalanche on Mont Blanc du Tacul on Sunday. MB
