On the Tour du Mont Blanc

By Debbie Singer

For a fortnight last summer
When Mont Blanc was toured,
We saw lots of mountains
But never got bored.

We shopped at Chamonix,
Camped near Courmayeur,
With all those white peaks
It all passed in a blur.

We weren't even freaked
By the téléphérique,
We reached Col de Balme
In spite of the heat.

We asked lots of questions
Despite all the briefings,
We learnt it took fifteen
To wash up the tea things.

We crossed over frontiers,
French, Italian and Swiss,
To bring home great memories
Of the Mont Blanc massif.

We really like the people who send in their stories and poems. Their views are always worth listening to. Sometimes they might differ from that of Explore, but that's okay because the world is an interesting place and we like to discover and talk about it, even if we don't agree. Just so you know.
