Friday Fun Day With Smiles.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week, well mostly last week actually as this week has been full of washing and visiting my parents.

Some of you may remember seeing this photograph before as we have stayed in this hotel before which faces the school.
This is part of Tignes in the French Alps.


There was a lot of snow!

 
Wednesday is Sports Day and naturally that means Skiing!
The Instructors are all here waiting for their pupils to appear.
 


And here they are.

 
You may well have guessed by now that this is a Primary School.
How cute are these little ones!


 
These little ones have got to make you smile!


The next photographs are of Piste-Bashers.
We could have done with some of these at home.

 
They work through the night to groom the Piste. They have a blade on the front and a comb on the back.

There is nothing nicer than skiing over a piste that has been groomed by a Piste-Basher.
 
 
This next photograph shows how deep the snow is.

 
This thing buried in the snow is a street light.

 
 That is a lot of snow!
 
The roads however are kept relatively clean.
 
Unfortunately this is probably the end of the season for us but hopefully there will be another one next year.
 
We left France at Geneva Airport.
It's big and very modern!

 
 If you like shopping then this is the place to be.



 But the snow didn't end there as the UK had a little more to offer.



 Thankfully most of this has now gone and we are hoping it stays that way but who knows.
I hope where ever you are that you stay warm.
 
 Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.
 
 And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for
"This Week's Smiles" and you can also share your  smiles too.

Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.

Sorry to be a bit boring but you will have to put up with a few more of my holiday pics. Lol!

I arrived home to these little beauties.
They always go mad like this when we're away.
These are Dendrobium and truly beautiful.

 

More gorgeous food from the hols.
 
For those of you who aren't steak lovers you wont see any today but a nice fish dish.

 
French toast, lovely with a little ice cream too.

 
Smoked Salmon and Scallops, Yummy!

 
Chocolate brownie and Ice cream with a massive blob of cream on top!

 
I'm sure this must be low in calories Lol!
 
 
Ski instructors coming down to meet a group of Dentists who were having a conference week in the hotel.
Their skis had disappeared due to the depth of soft snow.

 

It's not easy taking the photographs as everywhere is so white as you can see here and the sun was hiding too.
 
 

 Chainage area.
Not something we are used to in the UK.
I of course took these photographs from inside the car Lol!


 Pleased we don't have many of these either!


 Onward.


 We don't however drive all the way home but go by plane from Grenoble to Leeds Bradford.
 
 
 Pick up the car and we're off again.
But so as not to bore you... here we are nearly home.

 
My dear friend gave me these before we left the hotel.
They are enough to make anyone smile!


 As well as the Orchids we have these little beauties in the garden too which must mean spring is on it's way.


 
I might be a bit late getting round today as I'm off visiting a friend this morning but will see you all later xxx
 
So that's all for now.
Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

Friday Fun day.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week, well last week actually!

Snow!

 
Snow and more Snow!

 
Some days were gorgeous and some of them it just snowed all the time!
 
When we weren't skiing we were eating the gorgeous food.


 
I have to warn you though if you don't like rare steak then look the other way as the French don't over cook their meat ever.

 
Gorgeous desserts too.






 
There may be more photographs to follow when I get my act together and all the ski gear washed and dried.
 
Just had to show you this though.
Comfort at it's best Lol!
 

Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

Friday Fun Day.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.

You might have guessed from something I showed last week that we've been away.
Beautiful blue sky, can't help but smile at that.


You have probably already guessed where we were.

 
And this is where we landed.

 
Pick up the car and we were off.
Look at those gorgeous mountains, I'm smiling all the way.

 
We are aiming for Albertville first and then on to The Three Valleys.

 
Tolls.

 
And here we are.
 

 We have had some mixed weather but you have to expect that when you go skiing.
Loads of snow and some gorgeous sunny weather too.

 
 And I can't leave you without a sample of the great cuisine.
Just as well we get plenty of exercise.
 



  Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.
