Skiing the Swiss Alps.

Hello all,

Just a really quick post to make all the skiers and snowboarders jealous.
We couldn't do the Jungfrau because of high winds so to drown our disappointments, (Mind you, not sure how disappointed Connie realllllly was!!) Connie and Tessa went for shopping therapy while Louis and I went SKIING, yay!!

It was an incredibly surreal experience as we basically had the whole mountain to ourselves. Just as well because our performances left a lot to be desired, lol. You will notice in the video and photos that there is hardly another soul in the place. Kids are still in school and being a Monday, adults at work so it was as if someone had given us the keys to the ski fields and said, "go knock yourself out". Which we did. I had more spills than I care to remember but got up laughing after every one.

I won't go on about the views again but they were great. We had a really good time and although our legs are killing us both, it was huge fun. Hopefully we got out all the cobwebs so that we will do a lot better in Aspen. Ooops. Did I say that out loud ;-)

Looks like mountains just got some snow, your lucky.

Like I said, unless your snowboarding your wasting your time!

Unreal having the place to yourself though!!!!!

What did you take the video footage with?
