First week!


I'm not quite sure what my favorite type of skiing is yet... skate skiing (ski du fond) , backcountry skiing (ski de randonnée), or alpine skiing (ski du piste).

Words for the day:
à bientôt: See you soon!
pizza à emporter: take away pizza

We went to Drew's boss's (Geanu) house for New Years and arguably the longest, and best meal of our lives. Just in case I forget...

8:00pm
Drinks: Port and some black licorice aperitif
9:30:
Broccoli soup
Carrot and squash soup
Salmon cream thing
Foie gras, Currant jam, bread
12:00am
Since we hadn’t seen the cheese plate yet, (a tell tale sign that dinner is over), we were a little unsure of the dinner status. 
Just when we thought dinner might be over with no cheese plate, the entrée came out. Canard aux legumes. So good.
1:00am
The cheese plate.

                                                                                                                                                     2:00am

 Three different desserts!
Tiramisu, cheese cake, and chocolate cake….  
3:00am
Café and dessert liquor

And… Drew and his boss's have to work in the morning!

An experience we won’t forget.
