Journal Entry:
Slept in, had a great big breakfast, and were on the slopes by 1:30. A couple token hours of skiing and it was time for the important stuff (i.e. the apres ski).

Diner was amazing, with most people dressed formally (most means everyone but me). After diner it was Cuban cigars, French Champaign, and a firework display that would have put most small cities to shame. All in all I'd have to say it was one of my best New Years!

Somewhere around 6am I fell asleep (passed out) for a few minutes and (they tell me) some incriminating photos were taken (watch here for the evidence which Christian has promised to scan for me). Got to bed around 6:30.
