Fresh Powder! Thursday 21 January

We all wake up super early. I think the boys were up at 6am! And we are on the ski lift by 9.10am for first tracks down the new snow.

Simply brilliant day!! Tara challenged me again to push my boundaries and I’m flying down steep powder bowls. Adam then finds us exhilarating tree runs that we want to do again and again. Gareth is completely blissed out after them with a goofy smile on his face, and we are all buzzing.

We then spend the afternoon shooting down off-piste powder bowls, through gullies and more tree runs. I really feel like my skiing is improving massively and I have my longest day yet on the slopes from 9am to 5pm.

We head into Morzine for dinner out and half the gang go for quick fish and chips as they are about to faint from hunger. Tara, Dan, Penny, Chris and I look for something with a little more atmosphere and we find a lovely French restaurant called La Chamande where we have a delicious meal. I order Macaroni with Morel mushrooms and it comes with a whole platter of little extra amuse bouches which pleases me immensely. It is a taste sensation.
