'Allo 'Allo... everysing Formidable!!!!

Ah oui, merci beaucoup!!!

Les montagnes est tres GRANDE !!! This is a HUGE ski
area, bigger and more impressive - especially scenicly
- than anything I've seen in USA. The Alps are just
unreal - especially at 3000 meters with a 360 degree
view !!

Everyone having a ball - today is our second day.

Great skiing, and good company.

love to you all, quickly from the internet cafe, on a
French Macintosh, with a keyboard where all the keys
are in different places!!!!

This view above is from the top of Olympic Express, looking West, then
panning around through the North, past the East, and ending almost
looking South. (Six photos tiled together.)
