Re: French Alps
Already planning on taking the train.
And we do plan on bringing our own gear. Speaking of which, if anyone has a snowboard bag/case that I could borrow, please let me know!

Re: French Alps
I've got a bag you could borrow, I doubt I'll be using it any time soon.

Re: French Alps
Thanks again for letting me use your snowboard bag Kevin.
I'm 99% packed. Taking off from work at noon, and heading to the airport at ~3pm!!!

Re: French Alps
I'll I can say is holy shit what a trip.
Here come's a ton of pics, 56k be afraid...
Katy up on the slopes on our first day
You can see we were on a Glacier, you can see the blue ice in the backround
Us at one of the higher peaks at Val Thorens (~3200m in the air). You can see we are well above the clouds, and that white mountain in the backround is Mont Blanc, the highest peak in France over 4000m tall. And the 150 person lift that takes you up there.
Also taken from the same peak, but at this angle, all those mountains are Italy
Other Misc Pics:
And of course we partied:
Ordered a Kebab and wasn't expecting a Hot Pocket... Delicious though!!
And the last day we took the early train to Paris so we could have a half day to try and squeeze in as much site seeing as possible. Paris is really beautiful. All the buildings are huge, old, tons of detail go into all the building designs. These pictures do no justice, you really need to see it all for yourself. I'd recommend anyone looking to go site seeing somewhere, to go here. You just can't stop looking at everything, it's amazing...
Here's a few pics of our Paris adventure.
(I'll take the one on the wall...)
Arc De Triumph
Eiffel Tower
Me on the tower
View from the 1st level of the tower
The Louvre Museum
Notre Dame

Re: French Alps
Hell yeah, it was awesome!!
Kevin. Apparently my luggage didn't make it back on our flight. Neither mine, nor Katy's, showed up at MSP. They said they hope to have it tomorrow and deliver it to me tomorrow evening. So I'll get you your bag back as soon as they get it all back to me. It worked really well!! Thanks again man!

That sucks man! I hope they get it rounded up. I'm not in any hurry to get the bag back, so it doesn't really matter to me, as long as they can find it again. I'm glad to hear it worked out well for you.

Re: French Alps
Those pictures are awesome! I'm jealous you got to see the Eiffle Tower and the Arc. Glad to hear it was a good time, except for the luggage thing coming home.
