the only thing I miss about the ferry is standing on the deck and feeling the sea spray on my face.
Last few ferries I've been on, that hasn't been an option.
They'll be painting over the glass in the windows next
I wonder what a round trip, around Mont Blanc via Grand Saint Bernhard pass/Matigny would be like?
On a bicycle, some of it is a bit main-road-ey. OK, but not the most pleasant circuit imaginable, in between the passes which are all good of course. And you don't generally get good views of Mont Blanc itself except round the Chamonix area.
Start here
Petit St Bernard and follow the 'Circuit de Mont Blanc' links until you get back to the same page ... via cols Gd St Bernard, Forclaz, Montets, Saisies, Roselend.
