October 2007

It looks like the years is going to continue being busy, aside from Working Michelle has done her last weekend course for the year. Unfortunately one of the other courses has been cancelled so she won't be doing her exam until next year. Judging by how stressed the other were on the course, this is probably a good thing. The following weekend saw her and Ursula in Zurich to see the Queen Musical. The story, costuming, acting and singing was fantastic, definitely worth the trip.  We were getting impatient waiting for the snow to arrive so we spent a Sunday up on Les Diableret Glacier doing our attempt at cross country skiing, after about 12km and quite few wipe outs we decided to call it a day. Poor Duncan falls a long way when he does. It was surprisingly cold because it was extremely windy. Normal skiing is much safer! We has an unexpected visitor during the week, Gunnar from St. Anton (skier not singer) called to say he would be in Bern. We had a very pleasant evening reminiscing about skiing and catching up on his news. Congratulations to Gunnar and his Girlfriend on their engagement. The following weekend out waiting came to an end. Engelberg opened its glacier lifts.  We survived the day with out any bruises.  It was a lot more strenuous than expected, we really need to get some more practice in before St. Anton!
