Jaillet Skiing Rocks

This morning went well and everyone completed their tasks much earlier than expected. So we grabbed some lunch and were on the hill by 1330! Beccy, Naomi and I headed for the Jaillet side which is the least skied of the resort. I'm not sure why that's true. I think it's better than Rochbrune in terms of extensiveness and better than Mont D'Arbois in terms of snow so I think it's best all round. Here's a panorama taken from one of the restaurant's, admittedly not today as it was much cloudier:

You understand it took a long time to take and I used a piece of software called LAF 1.0 to stitch the panorama together. It's brilliant if you want to do this sort of thing. If you'd like to buy a copy send me £5.00 as a cheque or postal order. Thanks!

Anyway; now I'm down at the Office de Tourisme using their free wireless, but it's not free power so I'll bid you fairwell as my battery is running out having posted about a week and a half of blog. But I'm well looking forward to my next visitor at the end of Feb (Tom), fingers crossed we'll get a bit of powder before then.
