When we arrived at Cervinia by coach, this is the sight that greeted us: mountains, picturesque village, and blue sky! |

Looking down from the chairlift on the way up was very exciting for Australians: snow as far as the eye could see. |
The main street of town almost forced you to feel Christmassy. |
|
 After a day's skiing - hopefully we don't look too tired. That's the Matterhorn in the background, famous on every box of toblerone chocolate. |
A skier ponders where to head to next. Or maybe the views have proved too much of a distraction. |
|
 The slopes were generally pretty gentle, but went for a long distance. |
Here we are with Sarah, enjoying an Italian lunch on the slopes. You have to eat something worth exercising off! That's real tiramisu in front of Sarah. |
|
When we mountain was closed, we tried outdoor ice-skating instead. You can't tell in this picture, but it was actually snowing on Kate as she demonstrated Australian speed-skating form. |
