Anzère

.

Today we went skiing in Anzère, a small village about an hour-and-a-half from Lausanne. We picked the relatively small ski area given that it's currently the winter break week for the public Swiss schools in our canton and some of the more popular resort areas were likely packed.

Anzère definitely has a beginner feel to it relative to other Swiss ski areas. This was fine by me given that I'm not the expert skier that Emilie is and can definitely benefit from practicing a bit on some easier terrain.

The weather was nice with mostly sunny skies and high clouds. Given all the cold weather of late, it was nice to finally have some warmer temps.

Here's a picture that I took later in the day looking back on the Rhone Valley (right side of photo) between the Bernese and Pennine Alps.
