Between 7:30 and 9:00
To start our day early and wake up well, we had a good breakfast. Hot croissants, cereal and yogurt in the cafeteria waiting for us from the hostel. In the cafeteria, we met our colleagues who came to take their shower. Some of them regarded themselves as being pasteurized or sterilized same as the shower water was incredibly hot!
9:30 to 12:30 We took the bus direction Montenvers, some worked and others have taken the car. At destination, we went on foot to get to a place where water is fully bound by hydrogen bonds (for teachers of chemistry), that is to say the ice cave, we could also take a cable car to get there. The ice cave is a huge glacier where we can enter.
12:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. We returned to the plane of the Aiguille du Midi to stroll and enjoy the weather. The hike was harder than yesterday, because it is highly likely that it snowed on the mountain. At some places there was a thick carpet of snow and it was dangerous to walk because it was possible to sink into the snow at any time. As a result, we (Luke, Katherine and Kim), we found ourselves behind in the snow. It was quite funny. Meanwhile, some have decided to go window shopping, others have explored the city and the other rested at the inn.
7:30 p.m. As dinner we had as a starter, a delicious salad of carrots. People have appreciated so much that there remained not a crumb when receiving the main course. The main meal consisted of rabbit thighs accompanied by gnocchi (Italian product made from potatoes and flour) and an apple cider. For dessert, we had the chance to taste a homemade applesauce. This feast was fabulous, very tasty and incredibly good. We humbly thank the chef Laurent who gave us these meals during our stay at the Auberge de Jeunesse de Chamonix.
Evening In the evening, some of us decided at the last minute, do laundry, others went for a beer at the microbrewery based in Chamonix by Quebecers! The latter took the time to do their luggage for departure Monday morning and go to bed early.
short, it was a beautiful day free, full and memorable for some, in this paradise on earth called Chamonix.
Katherine, Kim and Luke
