verykiasu2010:

for Zermatt and Chamonix, both summer and winter has its own beauty


one in Swiss and one in France, on opposite side of the Alps

if one is having holiday in Swiss, it is an opportunity to take in that part of France as well, via Geneva

Yes, Zermatt in Switzerland; bring sunglasses and play some snow.
We like Rhine Falls, though little kids may be scare of the roaring water.
Of course, buy a lot of chocolates back!

Hi Buddy, managed to dig out my age-old album and have the itinerary attached inside plus diary of each day. Those were the days when I could afford to be so neat-freak.

Already PM-ed you the itinerary in 4 parts of the photos I took of the itinerary, hope you can see them clearly.

Have a great holiday! Weather at that time I went, July was hot but not humid...

Hot usually means clear blue sky, which is ideal for seeing the snow capped mountains in their full glory.

I've received your 4 PMs, will go read them in details later.

I have also way passed the days when I actually complete a photo album...my bad.

Planning to go in June, hopefully weather won't be too hot.

Agree, with clear blue sky, photos are indeed like postcards!

But generally, we have been experiencing clear blue sky in Europe in Spring and Summer. Autumn in the US was good too.
