Winter 06/07 fading away!

With the season coming to an end I thought I'd take one last ski trip to Zermatt. Currently they also have a promotion for local citizens, giving you train&ski pass for CHF50 (aprox €32), which really is a great deal! It was a beautiful day, but quite cloudy in the morning. Some pictures below!

Bettmeralp

These pictures are from last weekend, when we went snowboarding in Bettmeralp. Takes us about 15-20 minutes to get there from Brig. The area is quite nice, but I missed the real steep slopes. Anyhow we had a great day with summer tempratures and red faces!







If you look carefully you will be able to see the Matterhorn in the middle of the pictures.





 
This is the famous Aletsch glacier. It's the largest glacier in the Alps, covering more than 120 square kilometres (more than 45 square miles).

Seabourn Legend




Ok, the news just ticked in that I will be joining the Seabourn Legend on the 13th of April in Lisbon, Portugal! I've had a quick look at the travel calender and it looks like I will be spending my summer cruising the Italian, Spanish and French coast...along with a trip or two to Africa. There's 3 more weeks left until I leave this place once again and head back home for 14 days of relaxation pure! Hey, anyone know where I can get my hands on some white (yes you heard me...white) dress shoes for work? Oh boy!
