Slopes of this season

"The best skier out there is the one having the most fun" — Phil E.

Hey guys, I'm back on the slope. It's nice weather here. It finally snowed yesterday.
There are a lot of people around. Impressive queues are observed at each elevator and funicular. It doesn't scare me, I've seen worse things.
It is difficult and uncomfortable for me to write text on a smartphone. Therefore, there will not be much text today. Photos will prevail in my post.
I have to say, the first day on the slope turned out to be pretty nice.
In the evening we decided to have a snack. We walked along the familiar streets of S. A lot has changed since our last visit. Familiar cafes and restaurants have disappeared here. Instead, global network franchises appeared. We are not interested in this. How sad that originality and originality are disappearing.
We decided to walk to the restaurant "At the grandson's". I remember he made a strong impression on us. To our delight, the restaurant has survived. Strange, but the halls of the restaurant are empty. We dined all alone.

The next day we ended up in a strange place. The veranda was full of people, people drinking the drinks they had brought with them. At the same time, a dozen waitresses crowded into the empty hall of the cafe ...
My negotiations about the service on the veranda were unsuccessful, we had to leave the establishment ... we found decent service at the top in the White Mushroom restaurant, and, strangely, the prices did not differ.

On the last day we visited a tavern that I would call - the bomb. At first I was confused by the name "Province" and the place itself - in a dark alley. But as soon as I entered the hall, I realized - this is what we need! The right atmosphere is immediately felt here: a cozy 'alpine' interior, visitors waiting for free tables, waiters who do not know fatigue and ... a fantastic aroma of lamb ...
This small restaurant impresses with its human attitude to the client: excellent cuisine for a reasonable price and a warm welcome...
When you find out that snacks and bread are also not included in the bill, and you understand why there is a queue of waiting visitors at the entrance.

What can I say about my success on the slopes? This season is not rich in snow, small stones lie on the slopes. Unfortunately, I scratched the skis. In conditions like this, I have to ride with a lot of restraint.

At the end of the post, I attach a photo of that wonderful day.
