Skiing: Sixt. Wind Direction: Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: sunny then cloudy Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Woke in our lovely Samoens appartment to sunshine and 13 hot air balloons
making the most of the light airs :) Mag and I walked to the square with
Maggie and David Coles to buy cakes for breakfast at Tiffany's !!! We are
also here with the Coles daughters Jenna and Abbie and her boyfriend Tom
who has never skied before so we thought the best option was to go to the
small resort of Sixt a few miles up the road and we haven't skied here
before either. Sixt is a really nice old little town surrounded by high
mountains with half a doz. lifts and 38 k of skiing :) Mag helped Tom for
an hour or so master the basic snow plough turns then Abbie and Mag C took
over as Tom progressed to harder slopes - he did very well and we are
hoping to get him on a chair lift tomorrow at Morillion - mcould be good as
it's raining here in Samoens so we are hoping for fresh snow up the
mountain !!!!! Poor David was feeling a bit under the weather :( but he
took us to the top of Sixt on 2 old slow chairlifts with my Maggie and
Jenna. We had a really good couple of top to bottom runs on really good
steep reds :) We had a quick bite to eat before doing it once more making
the most of the nice snow even if by this time the sun had disappeared :(
With aching limbs we headed back to the appartment for tea and cake - a
doze in a hot bath followed by pizza and a 2 hour game of our favourite
Phase 10 which David won again !!! Top day :)
