Christmas

Spent a wonderful Christmas in Les Gets with Simon's family. the house was always packed never less than 6 people and 2 dogs in 3 tiny apartments. Went snowboarding everyday but 5, the 2 before we got there, the 2 after i dislocated my shoulder and the last sunday heading back to Chambery. not a ton of photos, because like i said, i was snowboarding.

Bummer view waiting us as we arrived, with an outside tree
The trusty Holden keepin it real
The setup, not a bad hall
The "fireplace"
Many nights were spent wasted on Zelda and other Wii games
Jasper and Cleo kickin it, they're pretty good singers, just like Hailey's Charlie back in the states.
Dog kisses
Christmas king, the American was the only one to keep his hat on all through christmas dinnerThe man in blackBig discussion about whether he's stealing the stars or releasing them
Watching the fireworks display from the bottom of the piste
Vin chaud after the displayThe whole family + Lyns and her rentals.
Bummer outdoor icerink
We got snowed on halfway through the vacation, only about 3 inches at the chalet, but depending on where you went, up to a foot and a half of freshies. Me playing twinsies with Jimmy's mate Alex, sometime during the last 2 weeksWe got to watch the cat groom the pistes every night, not bad

Sledding (sledging) down to the pub is probably the best way to travel, until you get yelled off by cat drivers.
