White weekend
We had a white weekend, enjoying the 20-plus cm of snow that's fallen here, and the 50cm-plus that's in the mountains.
Saturday - cross-country skiing, carving out our own tracks in places and then following the freshly-laid grooves from the x-country track-making skidoo. I'm still not very good at going downhill on cross-country skis!
Sunday - sledging and then cross-country again. Apart from the travel costs, we spent nothing on winter sports this weekend - so in comparison to downhill skiing, we're around ?200 in the black. Judging from the webcam on our local hill, the pistes were pretty packed, especially today, in the sunshine.
Here's 12 seconds of our weekend.
