I heard about the Avalanche, but I didn't think
all the kids died.
Unless, maybe the total number of kids was more than seven. I didn't
really pay much attention, since it was someone else's local news, and I
was interested in hearing about national news..... the Columbia.
Yesterday 4 snowboarders, which where missing afer an avalanche
in the French Alps where rescued. They survived in a self made
igloo in 2150m (~7000ft) for 4 days.
