Woke up today and the sun was shinning - there was tons of new snow and our appt and the surrounding area looked magical - photo's below. We took Heather for a walk to her favorite park in Bourg - she is settling in and is doing her best to keep the other dogs near us in check - does a good amount of barking to make sure they know this is her house and has found loads of cats to chase.
We went up to Les Arc 1800 this morning and wee Johnnie bought himself a new ski outfit - really wild and wacky - photo's to follow - the last outfit lasted 12 years so not too bad. The skiing was fab there is loads of new snow and the sun shone all day long and hardly anyone around on the pistes - wee Johnnie did his usual trick of leaving his gloves and hat in one of the ski lifts so we had to use our best french to try and track them down which we did eventually after a frantic ski trying to follow the ski lift down - he has learn't his lesson and is now methodically checking he has everything before we get off the chair lifts - not sure how long this will last. We ended the day on the terrace at the back of the Hotel Golf with a glass of vin - all very satisfactory - the sun was still out.
We had fun trying to get back up to our appt - the bottom part of the road is still very snowie and we had removed the snow chains so we took 3 attempts to get up the hill - the snow chains are a bit of a nightmare - one has broken already so not sure what happens when we get the next large dump of snow.
