Just the kind of day I needed
Friday, May 30th, 2008Since the skiing finished I’ve been working pretty hard to get back on top of all my client work. I finally got there yesterday. All loose ends tied up as much as they can be, and I was exhausted. The idea of sitting in front of the computer all day appalled me, but it’s been rainingtorrentially here in Chamonix for almost a week now, and there’s not much to do here when the weather’s bad. So Sarah and I came up with a great idea, and drove over to Switzerland to go to the Spa at Lavey les Bains.
It was just what I needed. Geo-thermally heated water feeding a big pool system. 3 hours of lazing about in the jacuzzis, saunas and pools. There was even a sensory deprivation room - A darkened room with comfortable seats where you just hang out and listen to whale music. Perfect.
Spas. My new favourite thing, and apparently there are quite a few of them up here in the Alps. It’s my mother’s idea of heaven. I can’t wait for her to visit again so I can take her to one.
