Thank you for a good show report! I was there the whole weekend and Sunday was marvelous weather. Blue sky, not a cloud in the morning..... views on the mountain fantastic! Only in the afternoon clouds started to form.

Thank you so much for an exciting photo journal of the Chamonix show!
As you know I can really appreciate the effort put into this.
Jim and I honeymooned for a few days in Chamonix in 2003 and went to the top on Mt. Blanc despite my fear of heights. I could not look down on the gondola ride up, but instead could look straight out.
Beautiful.
And Chamonix was a gorgeous town to roam about in. We bought a beautiful lead crystal vase which I treasure to this day. We had some crepes with pistachio ice cream and chocolate sauce while cooled by the mist of the river during a very hot day.
Thank you for showing some of the town in the photos, it is a reminder of a very good time as we bicycled across France with the Tour de France race course on our tandem bicycle.
Cheers!
