Good for the environment, good for me

I would like to say a big thank you to the Costello family, who left our chalet Atelier this morning. This is because they drove. although it may not have been for a such a reason this is, compaired to flying, an more environmental option. However it is not for this reason that I wish to thank them, but in driving I did not have to take them to the airport this morning, which meant I could go riding on this fantastic morning.

Oh and Em got stuck on a chairlift ;)

The season thus far

Despite the 'latest news' title I have to admit our news feed is a little out of date. You have noone to blame but me, but in trying to rectify the situation here is a catch up of what we haver been doing in the lovely little town of Morzine since the beginning of December. Besides working.

As the last post said we played host to the crew from the News of the Worlds fabulous magazine, who did a number of shoots in our Chalet Le Prele. These have since been published over the last few weekends and look nothing short of, well, fabulous.

Fortunately the snow arrived 12 hours after they did and hasn't stopped since. it has been a good snow year, maybe not epic but consistent drops, with a number of classic big dumps (you know the really statisfying ones) mid Jan and early Feb, which will ensure seeing us through to the end of the season, despite the fact that the long range forcast is for snow falling right through to the end.

Our team have been amazing and consistently delivering the MM service, and as a result we have bene fully booked and are so untill end of March with the last few rooms going quikly. And from our point of view super happy that the vast majority of our gusts this year have been before or been recommended by somebody who has, and for that we can only say a huge thank you to any and everyone who has supported us.

Our new MM snowboard concept has been going well, with the Lib-tech boards changing a lot of ridders ideas of what a board can to for them. Our Snowboard camps are selling out, with only 1 place left on the next one in mid March, and as a result had the likes of snowboard legend James Stentiford, and the rest of the Quiksilver team to visit.

We are already making plans and taking bookings on next year, and will have loads new to tell you about by the time it comes round.

And I know you dying to ask how Luc is. Well he is officially 2 (has been for few months now) and is making sure everyone knows it. He had his first taste of skiing on xmas day and is super keen to do more and other than an insane curiosity (whats that? whats that? whats that?) he like the rest of us is very well.

Hope you are to.
