Sunday 7th February

From Sharon

Tanya rang to today
and I made a few notes as we spoke
x

x

x
They were going to the top of the ski run
which is 1059 meters above sea level

x

x

Going for just a look, not to ski,
and they were travelling in a gondola

x

x

As well they are going snow hiking ... wearing
big tennis racket type shoes to get through the snow!



Yesterday it was snowboarding ... four hours of it and they had great fun
She also went to special ladies Japanese swimming thing where they all bath naked!
And went into a hot pool which is outside but, as part of the resort's activities,
she had to get to it through the snow in bare feet and a bikini!!

It was the Gala Dinner last night which she said was awesome

There was a "tasty morsel" she took a liking to and she went back for more
And was given two ...
When she went back the third time the chef laughed and gave her seven more!

Certainly sounds like she is having fun!

Tanya said the food and service at the Resort has been fabulous

and more from Sharon

At the end of our chat, my sheet of paper had notes all over the place !!

The "ladies swimming thing" could be an ONSEN and click here for more details
x

Tanya also mentioned a
"hot pool"
and I think it is this one ...

It is called a
CANADIAN BATH
and is at Club Med
and their web site says ...

x
"The highlight after a day
of skiing is the outdoor
Canadian Bath
It is an outdoor hot tub
which means you get
literally snowed on
when you sit in the tub
Popular with everyone"

The Canadian Bath is shown in yesterday's notes
and an ORFURO is a traditional Japanese heated bath

x

x

The SASHIMI sounds good
and you can read lots of information by clicking here


"A Japanese delicacy made from very fresh raw seafood,
sliced into thin pieces,
and served with only a dipping sauce"

This is what Tanya's could have looked like !!
