Ski Day 1 - Megève

Today was another beautiful day; cold but bright sunshine and clear blue skies. We got up reasonably early, sorted out all of our stuff and drove up to the Rochebrune lift; plenty of underground parking that's free if you have a lift ticket... We bought our season passes (€357 each - today was the day that the price went down, the season pass is cheaper if bought in mid November or after 4th Jan...). We had expected to have to buy the season pass tomorrow, the translated price list said that it was available after the 5th... We were expecting to pay €32 each for today and then get the season pass tomorrow. We skied mostly around Rochebrune, off of La Petite Fountaine and around L'Alpette. A relaxed and easy day. I was taking it easy as it was the first day back on snow since my knee has healed. I was a bit shakey on the first run but soon got back into it and the knee was fine. The €64 that we saved on lift passes for the day went on lunch at L'Alpette...
