Day 2

Timings were spot on today... Up, fed, on the bus and to the Gondla by 9am... All groups were away skiing In glorious sunshine by 930am.

I spent the day with the beginner groups again with Mr Buck and Mrs Hanford and Miss Ball and Mr Thompson were punished for the day by trying to keep up with the advanced skiers who I hear
Rocked the mountian and completely wore out Thommo and Ball!!  I will ski with the advanced groups tomorrow so will make sure there are plenty of pics of the other half of the group on tomorrow's blog.

The beginners... Well I can't really call them that now as after only one day they were all off the nursery slope and working their way around blue slopes and t-bar lifts... It is amazing to see how quickly the nervy and wobbly from yesterday have developed into the fearless and crazy!!!

Some fantastic skiing with great development of plow turning and good control.

I can honestly say that i have never skied in such great conditons... It was 16 degrees on the snow today and we were skiing in t-shirts!! We couldn't ask for better.  Our groups will be venturing further tomorrow and working with poles too... The advanced group have already distroyed the black runs (as well as their staff)... I can't wait for that tomorrow!!!

Anyway... Plenty of pics from my groups today....































So a great day had by all again.

Mr Buck will be guest blogger later for the twonk awards.. So standby for that!!

We are all presently hammering the bowling alley in a mass tournament!!




Thanks again to parents, friends, staff and family for their comments.. We will read out all of yesterday's at the twonks tonight :-)
