5th April

Last day of skiing at La Mongie Bareges for the 2009/2010 season.

Steve and I decided to go skiing on Easter Monday and were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the snow, we had a good mornings skiing followed by a long lunch down in the resort of La Mongie, sitting outside looking up at the pistes and snow capped mountains. Beautiful!

Spring has sprung and there are flowers everywhere. The primulas on our lawns were beautiful and I didn't want Steve to cut the grass, he held off as long as he could but he cut it on Monday afternoon when we arrived back from skiing and before we went out for a ride on a tandem that we had borrowed from our friends Patrick & Claire. Steve said that the grass was getting too long and he couldn't leave it any longer but he did leave me a circle of primulas on the lawn in front of the hot tub, so I still have a pretty patch of flowers.

We have a weekly Line Dancing class being held in our games room led by Sylvia. It was decided it would be a good form of exercise for body and brain. It is a lot more energetic than it looks on the TV and I have trouble remembering which dance is which until we start dancing,it is coming and we can do a few dances reasonably well now. But we all fall about laughing when we start a new dance as we think, No way will we be able to do all those steps.
