I am pleased to say I spent a beautiful, snowy, white Christmas at the hotel despite being away from the family. The hotel's staff all came together like our own little family and enjoyed a nice christmas meal together on Christmas eve before doing the evening's service. We then all partied til about 3am in the underground bar, dressed up and dancing on tables. Lots of fun, but huge headaches for Christmas morning.

After doing Christmas morning brekky service the staff all gathered and opened each other's Secret Santa presents with champagne (yes, more drinking) in hand.

We all then skied over to Tignes - which was not fun while feeling ridiculously hungover in a claustrophobic gondola - and all enjoyed a lunch paid for by our company.

We then served about 70 guests a lovely Christmas meal on Christmas night, before I fell asleep at about 10pm absolutely exhausted from my 4 hours sleep on Christmas eve.
I am having a ball here at the moment and am enjoying all the partying and camaraderie with everyone I work with.
On a side note, I love the quirkiness of France. Every morning and evening I collect bread from a bakery nearby my chalet and my baker is continually stoned. Literally, my baker is baked. He leaves his half-smoked joints on the bench-top as he packages up the baguettes. Crazy, huh!?
