going well with the family? how's mrs m doing?

We are having a ball, Caron. Were up in Aufach today, and discovered that this suits the repairing leg much better, so will be back for more. Much easier skiing at Auffach, and very nice on a sunny day. Even better views of the Alps than N.

The boys making constant improvement, we do a couple of runs doing drills at the start of the day, then just enjoy. The old dog can still outrun the young fellers :D

I agree with admin, outside of the skiing, highlight of last week was the look on your face after skiing Tennladen, and the hugs that followed.

Have to go with Zermatt, recommend Hotel Atlanta, for hospitality, value and balcony views of the Matterhorn. No after-dinner bar though.

Main downside to Zermatt is access to the mountain. 140 people in a cabine is not funny.

Apart from having The Legend poach my lines... ...

Excuse me Admine dude , three days in Niederau, and you think you own the powder. This actually belongs to God, and I have a long term lease.... :twisted:

Skiing is still never less than good. Both sons giving it a blast, knocking out about 16 runs a day, plus plenty of "playing" on the top runs.

Big bonus is my Frau, - she is skiing the mountain, mended broken leg and all, in perfect style. :(

Live music at O'Malleys with Danny. Herbert giving it full rock n roll on the Harp!

What joy!

Have met quite a number of J2skiers now, and all have been really nice folk. Met another yesterday, Mark, well he is almost a J2er, he reads all the threads, but has had trouble getting registered.

Had a couple of runs, he was stylish and fast, and a nice guy.

If you can wait until next wek Caron, I have series of pictures taken - last run of the day, right down the whole empty run.

Dave Mac its sounds like you`ve been the perfect gent this wk and im sure you`ve enjoyed every minute as much a Caron-a if not more.

Your right Adele, I did enjoy the whole bit. Caron is in the top three of people that I have had the privelige of giving a little help to, over the years. I had to keep reminding myself of how much she has fought her way back from injury. I hope that Caron does not mind me mentioning that during her first ski comeback this week, she was wearing TWO knee brace hinges.

I think your boys are going to be whacked out next wk when you take them through their paces.

Errm, they both believe they are quicker than me. They are certainly both fitter than I am. It is certainly going to be interesting, it will be the first time for four years that we will all get to ski together.

Enjoy the rest of your hollie bobs and steady on the schnapps.

Which?

Forgot to say, you get a discount on your lift pass at SchiWelt, providing you are over 80.

I do not, I hasten to add, qualify, in spite of Bandit's attempts to prove otherwise. :wink:
