Day: 5

I learned an important world tour photography lesson today, if you leave your memory card in your computer, when you go to take pictures on the slopes your camera won’t work. I sucked a little because this morning was so great that everyone should have seen it. Fresh snow on everything.

The snowboarding this morning on the other hand was spectacular. Nice soft powder, crisp air with a little snow still falling, it was the kind of morning skiers and snowboarders dream of. The day started to dwindle around noon as the clouds rolled in and the mountain quickly became a whiteout. I headed down off the slopes around 130pm when I thought to myself “If I get lost out here its going to take forever to find my way back to town.”

I took the train home, shot a few pictures, had some tea and read my book until dinnertime when I had some leftover pasta from last night. These relaxing days in the Alps are treating me well, I feel healthier than I have in a long time, a few more days and I’ll probably feel like moving on.
