22nd January to 27th ski heaven week!!!


















 Helmet excellent!!!! Had two days of poor visibility skiing, felt nice and secure, Dave purchased one too and looks very dashing in his!!!

On Monday he threw down a bit of a gauntlet as I have appeared to loose my nerve a little, hence helmet purchase and on Wednesday when sun came out I felt my nerve return. Beautiful days skiing on brevent, absolutely stunning!

 Thursday snow, work for both of us as planned around the snowy day. Then in the evening I broke a tooth ! One of my molars just broke off, positive aspect is on Friday rang dentist to make an appointment and needed French and it just flowed!!! The evening sessions with Julia are so paying off. Dave really impressed :-) appointment for Tuesday made luckily no pain as yet.

Another beautiful days skiing on Friday, snow really improving, white and fluffy and our management of powder is improving. Also have another job option for 6weeks or so. Pippa, who I cleaned for with lovely little Oliver, needs babysitting for some hours in the week to get on top of work back home so am going to do that for 3 hours on wed morning and drop a session at sno station whilst I do it, yeeha! Flipping hard work making all those beds! Though might need to revise care of a 6month old, bit bigger than I am used too!

Saturday beautiful day up on brevent . met up with dawn and Ian for planned black run from top. Unfortunately Dave had given a Christmas tree an unexpected hug and banged his shin ( luckily all well following lots of icing) so Ian took me up. Amazing views from the top and a great sski down. No worse than some of the unpisted  reds we have done. Also did the lachenal which has been shut till now, our apartment block too is named that. Really hard work, red but steep and light flattened so hard, by managed it OK.

Sunday working, Dave Pk painting, French lesson then a few beers and ended up chatting to a lovely couple from Kendal, even stretched to drinks post happy hour!!!!

Just back from another amazing powder day. Can not remember skiing in such amazing conditions, but must also be that we are getting better and tackling the unpisted runs, which are great fun whilst remaining nice and safe. Must get all this uploaded as its been a while.
