Lovely ski

I did mention that I am on holiday this week didn't I? It is kind of a ski holiday although we arenot going up every day. We are also doing useful things in th potager (kitchen garden) and around the farm, basically chilling out.

We had a brief return of lovely spring weather yesterday and went on a nice ski tour down the Aygues Cluses valley. Unfortunately we didn't take the camera, but this is what the view looked like. 

It was a steep climb from the top of the quatre thermes lift through a quite exciting hole in a rock like this - these people do ski holidays which include this tour. http://www.pyrenees-mountains.com/ski-touring/intermediate-ski-tours/pyrenean-off-piste-ski-safari

We were quite knackered by the time we got back and happy to sit down in our lovely new outdoor kitchen for some hot chocolate.
