Went to Chamonix just before Christmas. It was the first time I've been so early in the season and was very quiet. Decent skiing though.

Funnily enough we go to my parents place in Chamonix more in the Summer than in the Winter! It's the beauty of a dual season resort I suppose. I've been to some places in Switzerland in the Summer and they've been like ghost towns.

Yup, two boarding trips booked for me!!!  8 days in March to Alpe D'Huez, with 7 other guys.  And then back there again on the 7th April for a 4 day trip with a couple of my mates, in one of my VW California's.

Cant wait, just don't want any accidents this time.  Broke my leg in the board park last year!
