After a very long haul flight we arrived in Geneva where Miguel, Guille and my mum! were waiting for us at the arrival hall! My mother just had arrived an hour earlier from Holland and Miguel came from St. Moritz with the car. Guille had rented a 7 seater car for us and off we went straight to the village of Courmayeur in Italy. A one and half hour drive from Geneva. We were so tired but so excited at the same time!
On the way, we all fall asleep while my mother was chatting with Miguel. Once we got closer to the ski resort, heaps of snow surrounded us. A beautiful site. I woke up the kids and they couldn’t believe their eyes! The trees, houses and mountains were all covered with layers of snow!!!
The next morning, it was sunny weather and while the kids rushed outside to play in the snow, I chatted with my mum.We had so much to catch up after 6 months! At lunchtime, Guille took us into the village. He invited us all to go up and have lunch at the ski slopes at an adorable little ski hut which is run by an Italian mother and daughter. The food was to dye for and once the kids saw the ski slopes they couldn’t wait!
We managed to rent the ski gear for the next day and tomorrow will be our first day on the skis!! Yay!!!!
