A Rainy Day...

My chances of getting a good days skiing before i go home are looking very slim now as it has been raining for the past few hours... its a real shame as we had such a good day yesterday perfecting the art of doing roley poleys on skis and just generally messing around on the off piste around chatel - was such a nice way to end what have been 3 awesome months of skiing...

What a day..

Good day today, finally got around to doing some awesome off piste with Jimmy that we have been looking at for a while, although the snow was not great as it could have been due to the heat earlier on in the week. We found a sunny spot in the trees where we sat for a while before taking on the somewhat technical descent which involved me hanging out of a tree to get down a steep drop! Was a really good run and would be fun to do again with some better snow conditions.

Since i am now heading home this weekend, i have been in trying to sort out getting the van on the road. given that she has only done 5000 miles in her time, 'Bev' as she seems now to be called, needs some miles under her belt over the next few months before she takes on 3000 miles of european countryside with chris and i at the wheel this summer. We plan to travel to Croatia via the best bits of eastern europe before heading home through italy and france towards the end of august.

Anyway, for now, bed - it has been a long day and one thing i can be sure of is that tomorrow will be the same...
