Almost all the pictures of my trip were taken on the first and last day when the sun finally decided to show up. 

For a couple of days it was snowing like crazy and we couldn’t see anything on the slopes. It was frustrating to have to go inside instead of skiing until the late afternoon. 

We even lost a member of our group because of the heavy fog.
Luckily, she was safe and sound and found her way back to the lodging we were staying at.

Love,

Finally going back to the mountains. 
A full week of snow, cold and skiing in the Alps sounds perfect right know (as it always does).
