mild december



We're getting pretty desperate for snow so we can start skiing. On our way up the Jura today, we watched a few guys make their way down the bare, rocky trails on skis- we are all growing impatient. For now we are focussing our need to ski by making some easy runs up to Reculet (easy because I have to take it slowly still on the lingering injury). Today was sunny and warm, but especially slick on the muddy descent. We took advantage of the mild temperature to sit in the sun and enjoy the view.

christmas train


What better way to start the holidays than hopping aboard the Christmas train with friends in search of Santa and snow! We headed to Chamonix and made MBC our first stop for beers and burgers before boarding the train up to Montenvers to get us all in the holiday spirit.


After the ride, we searched for letters to spell out Santa's location. But before we went to visit him in the Grand Hotel, we run up and slid down the snow until our feet were soaked.
