Last winter we spent a weekend in Cervinia and we loved the skiing so much we had to go back this time for opening weekend! We found a super cozy ski hotel just a short walk to the ski slopes called Hotel Jumeaux. I contacted the hotel to ask if we could have a room on a low floor since my dog, Sasha, can't walk down stairs very well anymore. I can't say enough about how kind they were regarding our dog! They had an elevator in the hotel (which is rare) and they always asked about her and how she was doing. They had a 3 month old St. Bernard puppy with pink ribbons on her ears (heart mealter!). Now on to the skiing and other good pictures!
After we were checked in we decided to take a walk about town while we waited for our friends to arrive.

| Great place for afternoon tea! |
I have to give a HUGE shout out to Amanda, because she walked my dog every day while I was on the ski slopes skiing. My original plan was to come down from the mountain to let Sasha out, but Amanda took care of that for me. How awesome is that?! Sasha has a new best friend!

| And we are ready for skiing! |
 |
| We stick with tradition around here....Bombardino time!! |

I just love the fact that you can ski between Italy and Switzerland!

| Go left for Italy, Right for Switzerland! |

And of course we had time for an awesome dinner
Everyone had a blast from the newbies to the nonskier and the crew of us regular skiers! My only regret was I forgot to get a really nice group shot with everyone! Again, I forgot the group photo! sigh! Oh well, the memories are there... :-) See you on the slopes for New Year's Eve!
