Skiing and wellness in the French Alps

From les menuires ...


It was fabulous!! The four-day combination of exercise at high altitude in full sunshine, uninterrupted sleep, sauna and half-board did its trick. I came home to a houseful of suffering snotties feeling wonderfully rested and well.

The big mountain in the back ground is Mont Blanc. The picture was taken at 2820 m altitude on Mont de la Chambre near Les Menuires by Mike.

Christmas photos



Our Christmas'06 pictures.
Noteworthy visits to Pups (see last post), Berlin Zoo, Cafe Aroma, Christmas Market in Berlin-Spandau, which is not to be attempted without a measure of rum in your mulled wine particularly in slushy winter mush weather; and the Ethnological Museum in Berlin-Dahlem .
Other worthy note: Leon walking long distances in large rooms of Grunewald Villa.
