in ski-ing from Charlotte who gave us tuition during our stay. |

Rich and Allie looking pretty pleased
with themselves. |
 |
This is one of my favourite pictures of
mother and daughter. |

Davey in, I think, the 'white egg' lift. |

Going up |

From left to right: Charlotte, me, Jean

It's cold (-8) and snowing as we prepare
to do a run down the mountain from 3200 metres to the green slope at
1650 metres. |
 |
 |
Arielle (I think) and I preparing ourselves for one
of the most exciting points of our week. |
 |
Suzi, Allie, Jean, Charlotte, Arielle and me. |
|
The visibility improves as we head in
the general direction of down... |
 |
...and are rewarded with some
magnificent vistas of mountain scenery. |
 |
 |
a pause to contemplate the tactics for our next heart
stopping descent. Well, there were a few moments when one went over an
'edge' and risked being verbally blown off the piste by Charlotte if one
(me) didn't get it right! |
 |
The view is spectacular and I just want to watch the
ever changing light. |
 |
 |
we're off...
Arielle, Mike and Jean |
 |
 |
"follow me!" Charlotte shouts |
 |
and we do: more or less... |
|
Suzi posing for the camera. |

Mike encore, smiling and not falling, a good
combination. |
