The First Trip that
Mandy, my now wife, and I went on together, in the car.
Yes, she still married me and even went on another trip,
the Haggis
Hunt in 2001.
A weeks holiday in
one of the most picturesque places we've been to.
We took the tunnel over to France and blatted down in one
hit to get to our overnight resting place. As usual I under
estimated how far we'd get, or drove too fast, and we had
arrived by around 3pm so had a pleasant walk down into the
town, before returning for dinner.
We had a couple of nights in a hotel near Mt. Blanc and
then a couple more down at normal level near the Swiss border.
Whilst staying at the first hotel we made the trip around
to Chamonix and took the cable car up to the peak. That
trip definitely counts of one of those great moments, the
view was fantastic, the air was thin and crisp without feeling
that cold. Everything just felt right with the world.
