Back to the realities of Tignes, working & snow conditions
The snow is really great, as Mrs W has been reporting, and the warm sunny weather is not unduly affecting the conditions.
I have a good group of 4 kids in the morning, 2 of which i have taught before, so we can get about the mountain and have lots of fun. Unfourtunatly yesterday morning whilst we were doing a drill 1 of the kids and myself were well & truly splattered by a border. We were stood at the side of the piste watching one of the other kids ski down when the border hit us. The border was hooning down a blue run missed a turn and took us out, our skis came off, sunglasses & caps went flying & the result was a 10 year large kid crying his eyes out and scared stiff for the rest of the morning.
Managed a trip up Grand Mottee with the kids & a ski around Genepy before returning to Le Lac via Tichot/Grand Huit. Great snow everywhere with no waiting 
The rest of the day was thankfully less eventfull.
2 young sisters at lunchtime in the Jardin de Enfant, the aim is to ski on the nursery slopes wednesday/thursday & on the mountain friday.
Adult clients in the afternoon.
ESF ski show in the evening, still in bright sunshine, so no need for warming hot chocolate

How did you stop yourself from beating the **** out of the guy who hit you? I'm not sure I would have the necessary self-restraint if someone not only hit me but also took out a child that I had responsibility for  Glad no serious injuries occured.
Thanks for the snow reports, can't wait to get back out to Les Arcs in a couple of days.

stewart woodward, I have holiday peeps this weeks and next. We're OK except for certain lifts at certain times - I expect you are the same. Sorry to hear about the snowboarder - hope you told him where to go in at least two languages!

pistenbully, we were told yes, but only if the pass is for more than 7 days. We had passes for 7 days and didn't need photos.

.Just wish we were staying for the good conditions. 
There was quite a big crowd there and it took place in daylight and good weather (for a change). Stewart is in both pics
