Largest ski area in the world Moutier @ Savoie

Do you know the largest ski area in the world?

It's none other than Courchevel. It's been for long I wanted to go here, Looks like its still going to be there as a dream as of now, with the close for this season.
The reason why I wanted to be there is for the airport that's there. The run way in that airport is at an altitude of 1941 to 2006m and the slope reaches from 18.5 % of inclination.

Now u know why I missed that place so much. Just went around Moutier watched the ville. The access to this place itself is a tranforming one, u need to travel through the tunnel to get access to this village. YES its a village, but of people speak English. Just take a 360 degree turn, you will just c mountains and only mountians. So what do we do? Just roam around and come back to Grenoble

This picture was in the local cow fair which was going on there. Any guess how much does this cow bell costs. Just a Euro 250(Rs.14000)


Inspite of so many unfortunate things the only consolation for the day is I watched one of the best race days in my life, I hope its the same for others. What a way to race, Schumacher started 13th after the qualifying. He moved up several positions early and reached the 2nd position. No one ever is capable of doing this, U can always expect him to do better after the pit stops. With many disappointing results in this season, he has come back with great vengence.

Fernando Alonso held off Michael Schumacher in battle which provided many excitment to win the San Marino Grand Prix.
