Italy ski trip Jan 2016

Desenzano Italy on Lake Garda.  Since there was very little snow in the Dolomites, we had to drive to the snow.  We stopped in this darling Italian village for one night.  This is the town square. 

All villages have their castle and this one belongs to Desenzano


Sunrise from our balcony

No mistake you are in Italy with all those tiles roofs.  The port is in the background.

Cervinia Italy, the Italian side of the Matterhorn.  

'The Wall'  This is the view from our apartment balcony.  

Views go on forever and not a cloud in the sky

Skiing between Italy and Switzerland

In Switzerland the cogg train is part of the lift system.

That Matterhorn.  Everywhere you turn.

Our apartment complex is on the left side, called White Apartments.

We had spring skiing conditions for 3 days.  It was blue sky, warm temperatures, great snow conditions.  The 4th day was a white-out!

Oh gosh. It is stunningly beautiful. I"m glad you had such good weather. The matterhorn is really cool. Did you go to the highest view point? I didn't realize you were going there or I would have told you to do that. I think it might have been on the swiss side though.
