Argentiere, Mer De Glace, Brevent

The first couple of days in Chamonix had poor weather but the rest of the holiday turned out to be glorious though. However, at first it was extremely frustrating waiting for the clouds and the rain to clear. We caught little glimpses every now and then of the wondrous mountain peaks above but cloud would envelop them all too soon once more. Since we had purchased a 3 day pass we made sure we maximised on its use. On this bad weather day we went to the Argentiere Glacier, the Mer De Glace and the Brevent... even if the weather was lousy!
