Update from Natalie

This is my third day in France training with the Canadian Team in preparation for World Junior Championships. I will be staying in Praz-de-lys for about 10 days before travelling to Goms, Switzerland for the competition. These past few days it has been dumping snow constantly which has made skiing interesting since the groomers have no hope of keeping up with the weather! It has been a fun challenge skiing in the deep snow but hopefully we will see the sun soon. This morning we did a long easy ski around to the other side of the mountain. Unfortunately, since it was snowing the entire time we didn’t get to see any nice views today. The food has been delicious and every dinner is a 5 course meal! I am getting to try a lot of nice traditional French dishes which has been such a treat. The next while will be spent in Praz-de-Lys exploring the trails and prepping for the races. Excited for the competition soon!

And some photos

Too lazy to ski up the hill so we took the T-bar :)

Skiing Right from the back door of your hotel!

















Believe it or not, there are beautiful mountains in the distance somewhere...
