Giant mural of Alpine scenery at The Snow Centre

One of the skiers at The Snow Centre in Hemel Hempstead enthused about the atmosphere created by the giant murals. He said, "They are the largest murals I've ever seen".

Look at the aerial photo of a ski slope on the left of my picture. It is on the right as you ski down the slope. You see cable cars picked out in red.

Strangely I didn't even notice the murals when I was standing further back in the restaurant. When I came forward to watch I was fixated by the skiers, looking for the headgear of my family and friends.
