Dans les montagnes!

Haha I used to love how the french translate 'rollercoaster' as the russian mountains... he he. I liked it so much I used it as much as possible in exams! Sorry that was really random but the word 'montagne' reminded me of it!

Dans les montagnes!...

Of course mile:

It's been fantastically windy here all night. Albert and I can see a section of a small mountain between apartment blocks when we look out of the kitchen window ... no snow, but wait ... when I stood in the bath yesterday and looked out of the high window on the other sided of the apartment I could see some snow quite high up. Just been to check, but it's all covered in cloud today. Still, this is France, not Switzerland (that's about 5 km away).

I love the idea of snow. The reality, though, is that I am hopeless with heights (I cannot look down from our 4th floor balcony, and become a gibbering wreck on one of those horrible "open" escalators in shopping precincts). Views are fantastic when they are in the distance, just not when they lie at my feet! Albert skiied when he was a child, but throwing oneself down a mountain has always struck me as bizarre, even if a small part of me would love to try it. It's not nearly as perverse a pastime, though, as that engaged in by the maniacs who hurl themselves off the aforementioned small mountain and float round in circles on parachutey things :eek:

If only I were cool enough and brave enough to snowboard ...
