My readers that have been following me for a while will know how I struggle with my skiing.

I have to really psyche myself up and its a real case of facing my fears..

This week-end trip to Les Gets was not for skiing but just relaxing and doing some snow shoe walking.

We woke to lovely snow this morning so I encouraged Geoff to go out on his snowboard for a few local runs,as the chair lift was open.

Later in the day we got some snow shoes and had a walk up the mountain, it was beautiful and so peaceful.

It was also hard work and we certainly burn some calories.

Now we have had a practice run we hope to go up even higher tomorrow weather permitting.
