But the snow didnt let up & it continued snowing for the next 2 days we were there!
Mont Blanc in the distance..
The lovely church next to our hotel..
Taking the little train up the mountains to see the Montenvers glacier, the longest glacier in France.
Unfortunately it was all covered in fog & snow & we only caught a glimpse of it thru the howling winds.
Then just before we got on the train down, the clouds parted to give us a clear view :)
Then we went up the Aiguille de Midi by cable car only to get caught in such heavy snow we literally froze & our noses all turned red! It was -14 degs & i was not even properly dressed... everyone stared at us in the cable car... i guessed they must have been laughing at our tropical silliness.
At the summit with no view... just a sea of white for as far as the eye could see.
But the snow-capped mountains were so beautiful... just like a real-life Christmas card.
I've seen Chamonix in winter & summer... what a world of difference, but equally enchanting xx
