SNOW, snow and more snow. We had over 25cm in two hours today. It was funny seeing everybody, de-snowing cars, doorways, driveways, porches, just everything. I'm still not used to it but find it all too charming. Does bother me when it gets in my boots or down my jacket though. The photo above is a ski moniter skiing to work past our appartment. So lovely, but shew it's hard work. I walked the kids to school and just trudging up the hill and I was out of breath. This evening I braved it and drove a whopping 20km per hour to Megeve to take the kids swimming. We have a new pool in the sports centre, it's all inox, or stainless steel to the English. It's like swimming in a big sink. But you think differently here so after an hour in the pool I started to wonder if my car would be completely snowed in. So we left abruptly. After that Seb came round for supper and gave the kids Christmas presents. He also takes care of a family in there Chalet like Manu in the holidays and weekends so we didn't see him over the festive season.
How funny are these beanies. They are all the rage here, all the kids wear funny hats. My kids were well pleased - thanks Seb.
