:: Freaky Friday... ::
Some pictures taken on a snowshoe hike near to Crans-Montana, and a whole bunch of avant-ski pictures taken on the first evening in Arolla.
Highlights: Daenu's moment of enlightenment and Sabine's sharp behind.
:: Stormy Saturday... ::
This was the first day of fun in the snow: snowfall in the morning, a stormy wind at the top of the ski pistes, and drag lifts that where so demanding that they claimed many victims among the less-experienced skiers/snowboarders. And on top of that, some of us (we won't call names) suffered from slight enigmatic headaches...
The horrors of a tough day of skiing were washed away in the evening by a combination of molten cheese, refreshing drinks and disco dancing (of which there are luckily no pictures!).
:: Sunny Sunday... ::
After a very short night for some, Sunday welcomed us with sunshine and lots of fresh powder snow. A bunch of us did not go to the pistes but went "hiking", me on snowshoes and the others on tour-skis. Although I felt the lack of sleep and the slight overdose of wine, the landscape was so beautiful that none of that mattered the least bit!
