Lunch with the boss!
This is Phillipe and I at the retaurant in the "old verbier" part of Verbier. Great food and he is a really nice guy! Got me extremely drunk on bottles of wine and liquor! Then we went out for cigars and had more to drink! Is this guy a customer service rep or what. He and his wife own part of LES ELFES camp where I have been taking my students for 2 years now! Great trip and counting the days till next year!
Don't eat the yellow snow!
Had a great time in Switzerland. Good food, nice people and I turned into a human snowball when I tried to go down a double black diamond run for the first time in about 7 years!!! Fell about 50ft. and walked back up to get my skis!!!
Chocolate, Wine and good food made me gain too much weight!!!
Evenings here were... as you can see... just as beautiful as the mornings!

 How is going the Mont-Fort snowman ;-) The missing Après ski spot name is Le Farinet, I remember it because I didn't drink enough local spirit to forget it ;-) Thanks to your page Verbier seems always to be a great party place on ski or at the bar!
