- Mont Blanc, French Alps
(That's him, Mont Blanc with the round white top - the highest mountain in the Alps and Western Europe, at 4810m high. To think that the Everest Base Camp that I 'conquered' in Sept - click here: Everest Base Camp - is much higher than Mont Blanc still needs a few seconds to digest. The big highlight here is the Step-into-the-Void glass room, with its glass floor - looking straight down into a 1000m drop under your feet, to churn your tummy. Billed as the "highest attraction in Europe", it requires one to wear a pair of thick linen shoes, step right into the void and smile for the resident cameraman. Including the "Pipe Museum", both add to a great morning experience in thin air in this highest part of the Alps)
