Most of the year we live in Holland.... windy, flat and wet..... whenever we have the chance (i.e. time and money to travel), we go to a little apartment we have in the French Alps.. the place where I 'should' live :wink

Here are a few pics trying to show you WHY I think so....

A 'hidden' chalet...... one day.....

A view of the Mont Blanc, Europe's highest peak.. for once without clouds !!

Something we have in common Francois: living in The Netherlands, and a love of the mountains. These are very nice pictures that make me remember how beautiful the Alps are.

Thank you :-) It is not often so clear in the air there.
You'll like the shots I took when flying near the summit then..... will find them on my HD one of these days :scratch
