Abondance – Frozen Kisses Week 8th – 14th February

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

I know very little about this event except that it involves kisses, love and romance. Abondance Tourist Office describes it as a

“frozen week of kisses during which the soft perfume of love will float over the resort”

Apparently there are writing competitions, St Valentine Day entertainments, and ‘little lovers platters’ in restaurants…….

Morzine – White Week Film Festival 1st– 5th February

During this week Morzine celebrates all that is great about winter in the mountains. I could think of a thousand things. They have narrowed it down to just a few. Mountain patrollers will be demonstrating ARVA avalanche rescue transceivers, there will be the chance to try snowshoeing and ski joering  but the most interesting of all, to me, is that each evening there will be free screenings of celebrated films about the mountains and winter sports from 6pm onwards in the sports hall. Now that is worth celebrating.
