If you’re staying in Morzine and are looking for cheap wireless access, I’ve installed a Fon access point on the top floor of La Troïka! It’s got a high-gain directional aerial pointing along Taille de Mas de Nant Crue and should just about manage to throw some Wi-Fi to Hotel Concorde and Fleur de Neiges.
To test the signal I used Qik on my mobile phone and uploaded this video via the FON_troika SSID from fifty yards down the road.
First day of monoski madness! Despite having my feet stuck together and my legs bound at the knees, I think I managed quite well. And then the clients called! I had to rush back to the flat to sort them out. I hadn’t expected to be attempting reds and steep blues after my first morning…
Background music is Can I Play with Madness by Iron Maiden; made with iMovie ‘08 and a cheap handheld DV camera; thanks to my dad for his camerawork.
