At the very top - before we realised that the tow up with the sign saying "experts only" really meant it!

Had a lovely time in Italy. We were up in the mountains about an hour from Milan at two very small resorts. Just enough snow, bit icy but improved as the day went on. Beautiful weather - note i'm skiing without a jacket!! Great food (although we had no idea what we were eating as nobody spoke any English and our Italian phrase book was pretty useless. Flight home unfortunately was a bit crazy. We've had gales in Scotland so there were mental side winds coming in to land at Prestwick (west coast by the beach) so plane was everywhere and folk screaming. I think it actually topped that bad transatlantic flight a year ago! The flight before us burst a tyre on landing and after us everything was diverted to Edinburgh or delayed. All in all a great 4 days away though. Hope you like the photos!
