reports from Niederau

Replying to RoseR's question on the lessons thread ~ thank you Rose, my frau skied very cautiously at the top, ten weeks after the leg break, and four weeks after the plaster was removed. A very courageous lady.

She also skiied down the Marbachjoch once, but that was painful and a bit scary for her.

Yes an interesting week, from many aspects.

Our beginner friends both did well, one came down the mountain on the 5th day ~ that is good.

Our intermediate friends both enjoyed Niederau, surprisingly different after our visit with them to Zermatt, Saas Fee, and 3Vs!

It was pleasant to meet up with TonyH, we have a very pleasant steady run down, followed by a beer. A lovely guy, who loves his skiing.

A very good fast afternoon with Jan, along with gondola chat, where we set the J2Ski world to rights!

Met up with the lovely L.Davies and her her erm, effervescent friend Blodwyn. First J2skiers that I have kissed. Not to mention that I immedately remembered L. from a good few years ago ~ she taught my sons!

Shook hands with all of the lift men, and half of the instructors.

Stunning New Year fireworks from all the surrounding mountain tops.

Looking forwards to going back on the 16th Jan for 16 days.

Dave, so glad she was able to ski.........very well done to her, brave lady.

Thanks Caron. I go back to Niederau on on the 16th Jan for 16 days, so will be able to catch up with you and your OH, and mystery guest! My frau, two sons and D-I-L arrive on 24th.

Bought her a season pass last week, so might try and tempt her to join me on my March trip.
