Woke up to falling snow and low cloud and it did'nt stop all day !!!! Checked the webcam and visibility was poor up top :( so we went for our four hour afternoon session again !!! We were pleased to find you could see okay if you did,nt go too high !!! We started on the Chariande Express,struggled down the top section where you could,nt see your hand in front of your face:( but the bottom was good and the power off piste was fantastic !!! We then made our way slowly over to our favourite marvel run in the low cloud and the run was actually open today :) The whole run the visibility was good :) and I went off the piste into a power field which lead to some great tree skiing - shame I am crap at doing it !!! I met up with Rob and Hannah and we had such a laugh dodging the trees,falling over alot and losing kit in the soft snow.The only minus being after losing a pole I took my googles off to find it and did,nt put them back on,then skied into a pine branch knocking my contact lens out and damaging my right eye - it is still sore and watery and the lense is scratched :(We met up with Mag and Dan at Morillon 1100 and they were abit cold so we went to the crepe restaurant for hot chocolate and to eat our rolls when the manager was,nt watching !!! We were now very cold and frozen when we reached the top of the sairon and decided to do the marvel one last time and get the bus home !!! This time Dan joined us off piste and again had a ball with me hitting a tree and Rob crashing into me !!! We soon warmed up and Mag should have come with us as she was very cold and fed up :( We then got on the Morillon bubble down to the village and realised that the Doina was open so Me,Rob and Hannah stayed on the lift at the bottom and got into trouble off the attendant for not getting off - our lift pass had run out !!! while Mag and Dan went to catch the bus back to samoens !!! The run down to the village was great with lots of fresh snow :) and when we got to the bus stop Mag and Dan were still there :( so they should have come back up with us !!! The scernery today was stunning even with no sun,and it's our last day tomorrow we are hoping for a blue sky day ???? Back to our mgm appartment for cake,drink and sweets in reception and then prepared a top top Chicken and duck Christmas dinner - well done Mag brilliant :) Then secret santa and played games - great day :)
