Italian Snowboarding Adventure - February '05

Ciao! First up in this gallery are some pics of Christmas 2004 where we spent 4 days at Jarrod and Tia's house drinking copious amounts of spirits and playing poker every night. Yeah, we had a good time. Also included are a couple of pics from Clint's casino New Years Eve fancy dress. Pretty. Aaaand then we have pics from our latest expedition into Europe. We had one week of sunshine in Sestriere, Italy right near the French Border. Au revoir!
Yummy Christmas lunch. Nothing like a hot roast to warm us up on a winters day.

All dressed up with a place to go. Julie's boss treated us girls to a ball at the swanky Dorchester Ballroom. Great night.

Looking towards the town of Sestriere, quite small with few restaurants but at least there was an Irish pub!

We took a day trip to a resort in France as it was only 1 hour by bus. There were some great runs there and more snow.
