Floating Mountain by justb on Flickr.
Lack of blogging on my part recently has been due to being in this place….
Val Thorens is one of the 3 vallees and is, luckily for me, home to one of my best friends…so I took advantage and visited this week. Happiness, for me, is mountain shaped and filled with snow so I was so lucky to be able to take advantage of a new dump of snow this week in this amazing ski area. It’s the highest resort in Europe with some lifts going up to 3000m so it still had a fairly decent snow quality before this week’s dump compared to lower resorts in the area.
VT has a pretty lively apres-ski with the follie douce (also in Val D’isere) and bar 360 as well as the frog and roastbeef, saloon bar (seen also in Tignes and Val D’isere) and a few clubs.
A really enjoyable week…now I’m on a massive post mountain come down!
more soon…
