Switzerland-skiing




I have never spent a whole week of vacation just skiing for seven days. Susi and I met with her parents at a house that they have rented for 12 years. The house is located at the base of a mountain in a town called Scoul. Susi's Aunt's and Uncle joined us for a few days of skiing...never thought I would say it but I was the worse skier in the bunch...the slopes just weren't like the ice slopes back on the east coast. The weather was perfect for the whole week, warm temperatures and very little snow. The trip home was another story! We had snow, rain, hail, lightning and gusts of wind up to 160 km per hour, I never was so happy to see Stuttgart.
