I was in Switzerland for work and my workmate Anne-Sophie and I thought it would be fun to extend our stay through the weekend for a pre-Christmas ski trip. Sloane and her fiance Paul flew out from London on Friday night, and we left Zurich on Saturday morning ready to hit the slopes.
We took the train to Klosters. The views from the train were amazing and the trains were right on time and (even in the snow)...American's could learn a thing or two from the Swiss about public transportation!
When we got to Klosters, we dropped our bags at the hotel, rented our skis and made our way up the mountain just in time to get almost a full day of skiing in.
The snow was incredible and the mountain beautiful. We took the last gondola of the day down and couldn't wait to get back on the slopes the next morning.
Our hotel, the Hotel Cresta, was the perfect little ski hotel...we even had a balcony with a view of the mountain.
That night we went to dinner at the Hotel Chesa Grischuna. Maybe it was the clean air or the gluvine (mulled wine), but it was one of the best meals I've ever had!
The next day we were back on the mountain for more skiing.
We finished skiing in just enough time for a round of hot chocolate at the Hotel Cresta before we took the train to the airport and flew back to London.
