That should be an experience. Five geeks all sitting in a tub. Sorry, we have a pact: no photos. 🙂</p>
<p>The skiing here is awesome. I&#8217;m so out of shape, though. Here&#8217;s a picture down the slope at Villars where <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/35034363287@N01/95342409/">Laurent Haug</a> took me to.</p>
<p>I hear the founder of IKEA lives directly <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/35034363287@N01/95342704/">beneath these slopes</a>. I can see why. Stunning natural beauty. That&#8217;s Geneva in the background under the blanket of fog.</p>
<p>Oh, and the chalet we&#8217;re staying in? It&#8217;s 400 years old and has a  weblog built into the house. Seriously. There&#8217;s a timber that has writings on it going back hundreds of years in a reverse-chronilogical format. No RSS feed, though. 🙂</p>
<p>Thanks to Pierre (a friend of Laurent&#8217;s) for inviting us up to his Chalet. Sometimes I get to have remarkable experiences. Today is one of those days. Thanks to both Laurent and Pierre! <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/35034363287@N01/95342234/">The view off of his porch</a> is stunning.</p>
