Chffing down
... trip round Migros to stock our sad looking fridge. 30CHF doesn't fill even one bag despite buying own brand. It will be a pasta-fuelled season.. . again. Phone topup purchased so shouldn't have desperate run out for a while.
Silly tokens for washing machine purchased and I just about figured the machine out. 3 sets of instructions-in French,German and Italian. I have smattering of each ...
A nice gentle start on the slopes
... weird. I kept freaking out that I was going to miss the chance to grab my skis before the bubble disappeared. Skiing in Verbier is much higher than La Ros, Las Attelas is 2750ish not the 2250 I'm used to. It's a lot busier here too.
I was hoping for a gentle start to my season, a poddle about on the greens and maybe some blues to start. Yeah well that didn't happen! Straight onto reds. I pretty much stacked it on every run. A particularly good one ...

... fig chutney and toasts and then-yes more!-honeycomb and apple parfait with apple sorbet. My goodness! The most incredible meal I've ever had. The chefs are outstanding. The service was smooth and charming, so impressed with the hosts.

Je suisse arrivee
Well after an epic road trip we arrived in Verbier just in time for dinner. Would have been nice to have a spruce up would have been good before meeting everyone! Got to see my treatments rooms-so lovely! The chalet No14 is beautiful and our apartment is kitted out well. I'm living with Ben and Vicky who wil run one chelet together and sharing a room with Beth who works in No 14.
Right I'm off to have a wander round my new town, catch you later!
