Pineberries



Pineberries are now on sale at Waitrose (and will be on sale for five weeks only). They look like a white strawberry or a cross between a strawberry and raspberry, but are smaller and tastes very different. I am a sucker for all berries, so I got mine today, and they are very sweet and juicy! Have you tried them yet?

Sooo cute!

The Arch & strolling in the Spring sunshine

After we spent the night in a fab boutique hotel a stones throw away from our apartment (why?... why not! LOL), we had brunch in a newly discovered Greek cafe on George Street (fab salads!), and then went for a lovely walk in the Spring sunshine:

Le Bel Air Mountain Restaurant













Yesterday I took Sean and Mum in the gondola lift up to Le Bel Air Restaurant where we met up with Bear who had booked an outdoor table for us during the very busy lunch hours.

Its really such a great mountain restaurant with a fabulous south-facing three-tiered terrace and with breath taking views over the Courchevel valley.

On a sunny day like it was, its a beautiful spot for a long lunch with some alcoholic beverages (or to nurse an existing hangover), sunbathing and watch the skiers go by.

The service there is excellent and its at the best location for non skiers like Mum and Sean, as it can be reached by foot from the gondola lift's arrival point. Need I say we stayed there for a very long time?! :-)
