Mon Blanc Express - goes from Martigny, Switzerland to Chamonix, France

Just leaving Martigny

Still climbing the Swiss Alps

Swiss Alps

The houses are on the edge of the cliff

The train goes right along the edge of the mountain - scary at times

Views of the Alps during our train ride

We went through several small villages along the way

The snow-covered mountains were awesome to see

Still on the train to Chamonix

The snow has already melted from the trees

Talk about an interesting backyard

Little village with a big view

I wonder how often these people get snowed in

We were fortunate to have such great weather during our trip

Must be a strong roof!

Hope no one needs to get out at this station

Postcard material

We went through several valleys like this

Nice view of the Alps

This much snow has no affect on the drivers out there

Looks like a ski resort

Getting deeper into the Alps

Arriving in Chamonix

Chamonix, France

Notice the cable cars up there - that's where we're headed

The town of Chamonix

A beautiful day in Chamonix
