Welcome return to Chamonix Mont Blanc in early September.

Signs of the times: Directions in Charles de Gaulle airport in French, English and … Chinese!

(Top left) Classic view of exit ridge from the Aiguille du Midi (3842 m). (Top right) Approaching the Refuge du Plan de l’Aiguille looking to the north side of the Chamonix valley. (Bottom) Is there a finer resting spot?
(Top left) The cascade du Dard. (Top right) The buvette de la Cascade du Dard. (Bottom). Does lunch come better than this? An omelette au reblochon. Although, I was a bit puzzled by the single salad leaf!
Flower show at Ushaw College. On the table was a tribute to the Queen, who had died two days earlier (8 Sep).
Proclamation of Charles as King Charles III in Durham market place. Clearly not having the same function as proclamations before the days of newspapers and the internet, but a significant occasion non-the-less. The Queen is dead, long live the King!
