With two teenage daughters in tow we set off to the western spur of the French Alps for our first family skiing holiday in Chamrousse, high above Grenoble. Ski school booked in the mornings and then putting everything into practice as a family in the afternoons. There is loads of snow this year and this makes both for great skiing and for less painful falling over!

Looking good...

The air is thinner here at 2000m above sea level. The scenery is spectacular. I love being in the mountains as they give me so much energy - I feel so alive.

The view from our balcony at the end of the first day. Time for the apres ski to begin...

Until tomorrow.

Nice photos! In the third picture it looks like a storm is coming.

You're right @glugster - it was brewing and we had a bit of a white out for a while
