Kim and I decided to have a beginners ski lesson together, we timed it for the Wednesday and, although we had booked a group lesson, we were the only people in the lesson. Naturally Kim had plenty of talent and we were both whizzing down the beginner slopes in short order.

I enjoyed myself far more than I had imagined, there's more to this skiing lark than first meets the eye!

A bit of pre-lesson practice. Nice form there Kim.

On the slopes, looking comfortable.

Our Canadian instructor. A very, very patient man.

No jackets required.
