Day 3

A beautiful morning we were all rough from yesterdays excesses bob had been sick his sheets had to go into the washing machine ! He was so sick he had even hit my sheets ! Alastair went above and beyond the call of duty made us all coffee and scramble egg on toast . We collected our ski equipment and eventually got into the cable car for 11am a late start but considering the day out yesterday a very respectable start time .
We had ended up in a bar called dixies and had been drinking shots that tasted of caramel we can't remember what they are called now but all agree we ain't doing them again ,dixies is a good bar though
There was around ten hot air balloons floating across the clear alpine sky when we took our first run down from la pleney bubble car to the next chair lift and we had a lot of lovely runs all over the morzine and le gets pistes up until we stopped for a bowl of soup and a coffee at 12:50 beautiful scenery and a clear sky up until now but the clouds started to close in when we headed off again
Alastair had arranged for his nephew Stuart to join us I had originally said to Ali I would look after the lad thinking of a young lad but Stuart is actually in his 40's married with kids ! We skied back into town where Alastair left his skis with me and bob at the Tibetan bar while he went of to meet Stuart at the apartment me and bob had a couple of pints of Guinness
So 3became 4 and we headed back onto the slopes Stuart is still learning so we stuck to the blue runs for what remained of our afternoon and skied untill it was getting dark and the liftfs were closing .at16:40 we came of the slopes and decided to walk to rogers bar for a beer the town was very lively we left our boots and skis in the hire shop .4beersvat rogers bar and then walked back to apartment via the pizza &pannini hut
