50 guests for the Pass’portes

This wasn’t a record, the record was 74 and goes back a few years (the passportes weekend again) but this was the first time we catered for them all. We hired the Bel Alpe hotel, lock stock and barrel, the owners spent 20 minutes showing us how to use it and then handed us the keys. We’ve known them since we arrived in Morzine in1999 so it wasn’t as if they were taking a huge risk? The main body of guests came with Andy from Biketreks (thanks Andy!) and in fact we probably new 30/50 guests from previous visits which made things easier. It was hard work, we all (Sam, Gareth, Carl, Sian and John) did a number of 12 hr+ days but it was worth it. Everyone was happy too. But then I maintain that may have had something to do with the weather, it’s very easy to be happy with blue bird morning and 25C in the afternoons. This picture is of the Biketreks crew.
