| Last Tango in Paris? |
|
|
| No, the first drunk in Les2Alpes! |
|
|
|
Where's the 1st tee?
|
|
|
|
Grahame puts in an appearance
|
|
 |
|
|
| It's all in the preparation |
|
|
| The hardcore boarders/skiers planning their descent |
|
|
|
Easter Wonderland
|
|
|
|
The hardcore team found plenty of unexplored slopes
|
|
 |
|
|
| All this snow... |
|
|
| and so little time!
|
|
|
|
What's that rope for Leigh?
|
|
|
| |
|
 |
|
|
| Aha! |
|
|
| Just when you think you've gone as far as you can go, the
"Cat" comes along to tow you another mile! |
|
|
|
Breathtaking
|
|
|
|
At this height it's hard to get your breath... but it's
worth the trip!
|
|
 |
|
|
| Looks like great off-piste |
|
|
| ...but be warned - there are crevasses!
|
|
|
|
It's there in black and white (yellow actually!)
|
|
|
|
Ski/board at your own risk - taking the photo while on the
drag lift was tough enough for this intrepid explorer!
|
|
 |
|
|
| You can almost touch the sky |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
Boarder or sky-diver?
|
|
|
|
Leigh seems undecided!
|
|
 |
|
|
| Macho man forgot his sun block... |
|
|
| and now look at the state of his nose!
|
|
|
|
Better safe than sorry
|
|
|
|
Leigh takes no chances with the sun!
|
|
 |
|
|
| Family portrait - one for the album |
|
|
| Yep - we all managed to hit the slopes at the same time |
|
|
|
I hope that's a shandy!
|
|
|
|
Good on yer girls!
|
|
 |
|
|
| Lynneee let's one rip on the sly! |
|
|
| but Leigh has his suspicions |
|
|
|
Lynneee thinks she's gotten away with it...
|
|
|
|
but Graham smells a rat!
|
|
 |
|
|
| Chill out time for the Rowlands' |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
Lo-lo pigs out
|
|
|
|
on a whole chip!
|
|
 |
|
|
| Day in Venosc |
|
|

|
|
|

Just one more vin chaud
|
|
|
|
Kazza starts another boozy session
|
|
 |
|
|
| ...Vivvy can't stick the pace! |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
Daran and Madi can't decide which drink is nicer!
|
|
|
| |
|
 |
|
|
| Heavenly view |
|
|
| Conditions don't get much better than this!
|
|
|
|
Allyson and Liza (classy birds) show off those
teeth...
|
|
|
|
while Vivvy keeps tight-lipped after her fall - check out
that swollen lip!
|
|
 |
|
|
It could almost be Karaoke time!
|
|
|
The boys get a whiff of Lexi's cheesy feet
|
|
|
| and she thinks it's hilarious |
|
 |
|
|
| Oh dear - it's Heidi Russell |
|
|
| That "Secret" feeling! |
|
|
|
Vince is drinking Sol...
|
|
|
|
and has just swallowed the lime! (or is that his Bond look?)
|
|
 |
|
|
Like father like son
|
|
| Scot is obviously going to follow in Leigh's footsteps
|
|
|
|
Mark does Minnie the Moocher
|
|

|
|
 |
|
|
| Competition day |
|
|

|
|
|
Wildlife
|
|
|
|
The snow tiger and the mountain rabbit in their natural
habitat
|
|
 |
|
|
| Altitude or Alcohol? |
|
|
| I'll give you two guesses! |
|
|
|
Yep - they're at the wine again!
|
|
|
| |
|
 |
|
|
| Madi learns by Granddad's mistakes |
|
|
| Perhaps a tad too much sun cream
|
|
|

they polished off!
|
|
|
| |
|

Scot the stunt man
|
|
|
|
Scot gets big air!
|
|
 |
|
|
| Leigh hits the heights... |
|
|
| but does he land it - we're not telling!
|
|
|
|
Medal time!
|
|
|
|
Madi gets her one-star - and follows up with the two-star a
week later!
|
|
 |
|
|
| Another sunburn victim... |
|
|
| Check out Lynneee's honker!
