superb skiing! =)


Hello~
Welcome back.. =)
Welcome back??
Haha..
After so long, as usual, i’m back..
My update is about my previous SKIING trip!
Now the class has started, so that brings the delay to update my stories..
*padahal sendiri yg pemalas =P *
The story is, ALHAMDULILLAH.. everything went well..
Back to Canterbury in one piece.. hehe
Okey, about skiing, it was super duper GREAT!!!!
New sport that is totally worth to try!!
As a loser~~ i feel better to be able to ski!
Haha..

5 of us went there..
We depart from London to Geneva on 5th January 2011..
Well, Geneva is in Switzerland..
It is located near the border between France and Switzerland..
So, from Geneva airport, we took an airport transfer straight to our hotel in France..
To be specific, Les Houces, in Chamonix Velley at Mont Blanc..
Have you ever heard of that name??
I think Mont Blanc is very famous mountain..
If I’m not mistaken, it is the highest mountain in the Alps, Western Europe and the European Union.
*source from Wikipedia + a Scottish man on flight*
So, i’m proud to be there.. ngeee~ (^_^)

The hotel was great and superb view! The mountain of course..
I woke up in the morning with grateful..
I opened my eyes, parallel to them, is the mountain view through the window.. SUBHANALLAH.. =)

..this is the view that I saw from my window..

..nice! =)..

..crystal snow, amazing!..

So, in France, the Les Houches, we have 2-day ski pass in any places in Les Houches.
The first day was in La Prarion..
We had a 2 hour ski lesson.. it was fun!! And of course i gained good techniques to ski well..
*however with uncountable falling down here and there*
Oh yeah, the ski stuffs are extremely heavy!!!!!!!!!
OMG.. the ski boots were very hard and you can get the feeling of being a ROBOCOP!!
It was quite hard to walk with the boots..And the ski itself is heavy and when wearing it, quite hard to control due to its length..

Okey, back to the story..
La Prarion took around 15 minutes on gondola to be reached..
and i love to be in the gondola! Hehe
The ski slopes in La Prarion are varied..
They are for different level and they were quite scary~~ huhuu


..i'm in the Gondola to La Prarion..

..syoq sndiri~ =P..


..got style?? =P ..

..its 1853 m~~..

The second day of skiing, we went to different stop which is the Bellevue..
It was not as great as La Prarion..
Because there were no private/ continuous gondola that goes up to the top..
And there was only one type of slope..

However, i learn to ski better there!
Enjoy my moment over there.. hehe.. *like a pro! (for a 1-day experience skier la..) =P*
But there was unforgettable moment when the crash happened.. huhuu..
I’m glad i’m still alive.. hahaha.. =P *evidence is in the vid, enjoy!*


fun huh??
hehe..

here are some pictures of mine skiing like a pro in Bellevue~
hikhik.. =P

..i'm a pro~ =P ..

..ooppss! kantoi that i fall down =P..

..pose2!!..

..Malaysia is in our heart! =D ..

..Malaysia is in my heart =)..

Okey, it has been too long! Enough about skiing.. food?
In order to save our money, we have our own food!
Such as MAGGI JAMBAN (use hot water from toilet, no kettle) and bread..
So, i just spend 20 Euros only for the trip.. YEAY!
At the end, we took an airport transfer from our hotel straight to Geneva airport and depart to London..
Fuhh... HOME SWEET HOME!!!

All in all, it was a budget trip yet fun and enjoyable and worth it!!
Just one thing that i regret.. i did not include visiting Geneva..
It was such a regret for me.. already in Geneva but did not pay a visit.. huhu..
Its ok.. maybe next time..
All in all, ENJOY!!!!!!!
