10th January to 21st January

More of the same. Skiing when not working, Dave has been doing some joinery which comes in handy. It has snowed a bit more so able to do more runs. Managing to tackle the non-pisted runs on flegere and brevent much better, though had another face plant but not into powder this time at the bottom of a red I was really pleased I had managed so got a bit cocky and tripped up over my poles.

Anniversary weekend on the 17th and 18th, nice to spend it somewhere cool. Went for drinks on the Friday with miles and Lisa, bulbbly with canapes in the hotel des alpes. Really nice will do that with the girls methinks. Fantastic skiing day on the Saturday 18th at led houches for the first time. What fun, lots of skiing through the woods and really nice cafes. We then went for apres ski at kitsch inn then continued back in cham and ended up in Jekyll and Hyde for a burger ( very nice one not the average.) So all in very successful weekend to celebrate 16 years ( or remembrance day as Dave cheekily put it)

had great news from trace back in the UK they are heading out in famille for 4 days in Feb and then she will be back with les girls in march as previously organised. So good!!!! Booked flight for mum to come and visit in June and also flights back to UK for 7days in beginning of may, so all good.

Had tales from Megan about a brilliant weekend skiing guided of a glacier somewhere (grave?) And feel that we should do the same whilst we are here off the aguille de midi, so purchased a helmet today and am determined to improve our powder work to get good enough to go with guided tour, maybe for birthday.
