... and it's always ****ing with rain.

Not always.
It snows sometimes.

Indeed.
Though not much this winter.
( Last March we had an excellent snowfall...
Here's a few photos around my house from then... )

The Alps have had a bad season this year too.

Nice one, many years since I was there, with fond memories of hiking to
the top of Peak 7 to do the bowls and of sampling the huge burritos at the
Bergenhof restaurant on Peak 8, highly recommended if they still do them.
Easy transport to the surrounding linked resorts if you fancy a change of
scenery too, enjoy.
