A Beautiful, yet long, Day

It was a beautiful day in the mountains yesterday, after a lot of snow on Christmas and Boxing Day, so I took the opportunity to have my one and only ski of the season.
 As it's been FOREVER/3 years since the last time I properly skied, my legs were not really in the best of conditions. So, we had a relaxed day and stopped for a yummy Chocolat Viennoise (hot chocolate with cream on top). Mmmmm.

After our relaxed, but slightly painful, morning ski we headed back to the Chalet for a little rest before skiing the our new favourite restaurant for a late lunch.
 It was then a very short ski home, and a quick pack up to head back to Geneva. We are now in a lot of pain...

Mountains

It finally snowed. And by finally, I mean half way up to the mountains. I was so happy to see snow again. It's been something like 3 years since I last properly saw snow! Crazy business! All the snowing meant the walk up to our Chalet was a little more difficult, and the view wasn't quite as amazing, but SNOW! We have snow! Beautiful, white, fluffy snow! Snowball, the dog we are dogsitting, literally turned into a snowball on the walk up...he could barely move he was covered in so much snow. I had to go rescue and carry the poor thing!

SNOW!!! Eeee!
