Skiing - Again!

Twice in two years. We are clearly forming a habit.

Alpe D'Huez this year, along with the Hurdleys, the Marshal-Thomases, Simon, Mel, Tom and Claire.

Just for the full picture, here's a link to Dan (Hurdley's) Flickr set of the holiday

The kids got lessons from ESF and were doing really, really well by the end of the week. Lenny had his 40th up there (which was a most awesome day).

Here's the snaps:

Skiing! Eeeeek!

So we went on this skiing holiday and knock me down if it wasn't completely perfect.

We went to La Plagne in the Alps and got good snow every day. Neither Meriel or myself are wildly experienced, but it was far and away the best conditions we'd ever seen.

The kids had a lovely time, going to ski school in the morning and bum-boarding and eating cake in the afternoon - what's not to like?

I was waiting to stitch together some images from the holiday which is why this post is so late, but I just haven't got round to it, so here's some of the other images from the trip:

Here's Chalet Ingrid, where George, our fantastic chalet host, lookaed after us with sublime food and daily cakes (yum):

I'll post some videos and some other images when I get round to uploading them.
