Amazing conditions today - great visibility, wide blue sunny skies and cold to keep the snow crisp. More of a grand tour than a lesson today as we zoomed all over Le Plagne from Montchavin, and back, in 2 and a half hours. Lots of runs done at speed, some playtime in a natural half-pipe to teach control, confidence and turns at speed, followed by a bash at a proper half-pipe (arghhhhh!) and finally some off-piste, falling over in 2ft of powder adventures. After the lesson finished I bombed off over the the La Vannoise express to head over the valley to the Les Arcs area to go meet some of my group for an afternoon of long reds and hot chocolate.
It was a long day, and I was suddenly exhausted by the time we were nearing home. One big dinner later (with much cheese and wine) and I'm pretty ready for one last gin and tonic and then bed.
More tomorrow xx

I made a New Year's resolution that 2009 would be the year I would finally get healthy ... with the aim of losing 70lbs. That journey was the start of changing many things in my life for the better ... and I'm still on the journey!
