Le Somport

We finally made it to the cross-country ski resort of Le Somport- just over the border in France- on Saturday morning. There wasn't much snow over the Christmas holidays so we didn't go then, but after waiting so long it was now or never! We put the ski racks on top of the car and loaded up. Arriving early enough to park easily and move about was good. It meant we could get out onto the farther slopes without tripping over skiers even clumsier than us. Cross-country skiing is hard work, and very rewarding!
