As of this weekend we shall be half way through this years adventure! Can't believe it, it feels like we have just arrived again.
However the fun carries on. Last Wednesday we decided to do the Portes du Soleil tour. We got up early, packed some sandwiches and were out side the Super Morzine lift waiting for it to open. The route took us through Les lindarets down to the bottom of Linga and jumped on the bus down the valley to Panthiaz. From there we went right to the far Swiss corner at the bottom of Torgon. Having reached there it was time to head back to France via Morgin, Champousson and Les Crosets. By 1.30pm we were back in Morzine and thinking about heading to Les Gets when the weather turned and we decided to call it a day.
On Wednesday evening our guests were going night sledging and as it was something we hadn't done yet, we joined them. Basically you get given a sledge and a head touch and jump on the Pleney cable car to the top and wait for it to get dark. From there the group of you and guide sledge all the way back in to Morzine town. There were crashes and people falling out but definitely laughter the whole way down. Amazing fun and another thing ticked of the list.
Staying in Chalet Thalassa with us last week were some family friends of Ants. It was fantastic to have Paul, Vanessa and Natalie come and stay with us. We had a great ski day in wonderful sunshine over to Switzerland with them.
The weather at the moment is great. There has been several snow falls making the pistes and off pistes great. Next week is half term so good timing before it all gets well used.
Today we have been out with our friend Emma making use of the sunshine taking lots of action photos. We traversed across from the top of the Chaux Flurie lift into the powder, Ant carrying his shovel, and built a little kicker. One by one we hiked up and jumped off and the best bit was you landed in soft powder! Ant got some great photos and videos which after sorting out we shall share with you all in the next blog.
It's not much longer until our family's join us for the week and we're very much looking forward to seeing them. See you all soon
