Buona Giornata

Another good day for skiing; still sunny with big white clouds. James and I skied over to Borgata while Ally and Davie skied - well, everywhere! They skied for 56 km with as much descent as if they had skied down Mount Everest! At lunch time they took James away with them while I relaxed with a coffee and then made my way back to the hotel. James appeared back by mid afternoon having left the boys still thundering around the pistes.

We had a pleasant drink in the lounge together. It's quite a novelty for us to be in a hotel for our ski holiday; usually we book an apartment and self-cater in the evenings - apart from our traditional last night fondue / pierre chaude dinner of course! This year has been a real treat; the Hotel du Col is very comfortable and has a great location right beside the ski slopes. It's lovely to have our own en suite bedroom with balcony, and the breakfasts and dinners are good and plentiful - no cooking and no clearing up - fantastic! Now I come to think of it, it's time to get ready for dinner now!
