Sad news……the Sherpa shop has closed, lets hope that….. those that can…. open it again, do so……very soon.

In The Tibetan Frank has handed the Keys to Toto, he's been with The Tibetan since the first day of the restaurant opening but a little hidden in his kitchen! The same name, the same kitchen, the same team, the same know-how…

Probably one of the best ski seasons for snow.
The end of season closing was great with everyone joining in with the Cowboy and Indian theme. The sun has now set on the ski area, which has now closed along with many of the restaurants, on their holidays.
Some will reopen shortly for part of the week, some remain closed until May…some friends will appear down at the lakeside in the sunshine…Scoobies will be there for us.
In May the telecabine will reopen, on Wednesdays, weekends and public holidays.
So time for a tour along the lake to see the spring displays at Montreux and Vevey as well as Evian. The sun has been warm this week … but will it last?

Some News
The Montreux Jazz Festival program is out.
From 3 to 18 July, the Montreux Jazz Festival celebrates its 60th anniversary


A fire engulfed part of the Evian-les-Bains casino in the afternoon of March 31st to April 1st. More than 120 firefighters were mobilised to extinguish the intense flames fanned by the wind.
So sad........
It’s reported that it started in the roof of the Au Bureau Pub the fire spread to the historic casino building, driven by strong winds, While all three floors were damaged, 120 firefighters battled to prevent the 25-meter-high 20th-century dome from being affected.

The weekly Evian market on Friday, April 3rd in the Square of Veterans and Square Charles de Gaulle will be held as usual. All businesses in the city can open normally.

The closing Saturday started with fantastic Bluebird skiing and Michael Noyce playing to a full house in the XV Bar.
On Sunday the weather turned, it snowed the wind blew and the Race was cancelled. So the Wild West Celebrations continued in Balcons at the top of the mountain with some great Cowboy and Indian costumes. Great to see so many joining in..
A great band and DJ kept us entertained, the wind stopped the telecabine from time to time.
As dusk came we moved down to the Thollon Bars, which were toured, and the DJ entertainment continued in Le Tibetan, Bar XV and L’Ourson.
Fantastic weekend. So what for next year…..?

More snow arrived and the sun has peeped out………….
The Brit themed Wild West has been picked up by so many in Thollon, so costumes are now very required. Are you ready?
Great weekend in store. We have Michael Noyce playing in Bar Restaurant Le XV on Saturday.
The ski race will take place on Sunday at 10.00. Les Balcons have entertainment during the day as well as all our usual Bars in Thollon. It’s great to see the Western Theme taken up in all the posters and events.
Lets hope for good weather…… its looking OK? …….there will be great fun.
