One word... SNOW!

Pri and I went up on the train to Unterterzen (1 hour South of Zurich) and from there got the cable car up to the resort of Flumserberg (my first cable car ride!) It was really gorgeous despite fairly low cloud. The mountains are dramatic up there, and there were lots of people out enjoying the slopes, boarding and ski-ing. Lots of kiddies, think it's quite a family oriented place, and mostly swiss apart from a few Americans and a few coachloads of Germans!





















I have never seen that much snow in my life, it was about 10-12 feet deep in places - though maybe where they had ploughed it to one side so that people can get in (some people drive to this place, but we left the Lupo behind ;-) ). They've had an unusually large amount of snow this year, so the season will be a bit longer than usual I think. In a couple of weeks Pri and I will have out first lesson up there I think... yikes...

Here's a few pics for now, will add more pics an more text later but need to go tidy up this flat!!
