The way home we take it easy and spend one more night in the hut, sharing the experience with the other people they want to ascend.
Back on the bottom of the valley we had a taste of very fine Italian food, but unfortunately I had to think about traveling home.
After this hearty days I ask myself, why should I travel now back in a personal car? Why should I destroy just this glacier paradise, producing pollution of CO². Is it the one and only way, just to pray to the Madonna on top of paradise mountain for tons of snow for next winter, or can I do something more!
Of course I can do more - I just travel by train (and a short distance by bus). Aosta has good access to railway and bus.
So I enjoyed at 4 p.m. on Piazza Grande of Aosta a bowl of 7 assorted sweet Italian icecreames and a strong coffee.
At 16:25 I took the bus back at Autostatione to Martigny - the rest of the way was by train - a great relaxing thing!
- why should I drive a car, just breathing some pollution, after some great time in crystal clear air?
- why should I ride on a Sunday evening never ending compact rope of cars on highways, just for get troubel in my mind?
- why should I travel a long ride around the alps at a speed of 100-120 km/h, instead of undercrossing them at 160 km/h to 200 km/h through a great railway tunnel?
- why should I arrive at home tired from driving up to 6 hours, when I can arrive fully relaxed after travelling the same time by train.
- why should I be in a thight room of a car, instead of sharing the impressions of the great days with them of other peoples on a round table at a cup of coffee or a bottle of beer in the hand, like on a bar?
There are realy no reasons to drive by car!
So I was long time before midnight back at home, on fresh and happy mind - just for a good next morning start on work.
Camping-Season just closed - Waiting for tons of snow !
