I love number 3 Alistair. Shades of St. Ansel in that one. I also hate it when the person driving wont stop to let you take pictures. Back in '93/'94 my Dad & I were driving through the Canadian Rockies in winter. He refused to stop for anything but petrol. I resorted to similar tactics, & damn near froze my face off. :-)
