but then again she really enjoys skiing and I cannot really see etc etc etc . . . . . . . .
Now don't start knocking skiing!

Sitting outside the Alpage at Megeve guzzling oysters in the sunshine.

Put your skis back on and take a few lifts (well more than a few actually ) and you get to the altiport, where you can aviate and ski at the same time. I suggest you take your ski boots off first though, otherwise the yaw control might be a tad iffy.

Interesting that many flyers also sail or ski, all pasttimes that involve going up down and sideways simultaneously, and seldom travelling in the direction in which you are pointing.
