We’re just back from a short break in Chamonix. The weather was excellent, and the skiing was fun. What more could one ask for to brighten up one’s spirits after weeks of grey British winter weather?
Before the weather warms up (and rains) on Monday, Laetitia and I grabbed one more ski adventure on our local hills…
