Day 3

Another day another blast on the slopes!

A great start and our team admin in the morning is getting better and we were on the piste even faster today.

Yet another gloriously sunny day and the ski tans are coming on well despite smothering the skiers in cream, the 6 o'clock shadow is definitely in this year in Austria!!!

We had a change around today and Miss Ball was able to rest her aching legs and the boys took to the advanced groups. That said the beginner skiers have come so far, I crossed them on a ski lift and saw them traversing the pieste controlled and looking like they have been doing his for years.. Fantastic to see!!!

Mr Buck, Mr Thompson headed out with the advanced skiers and they gave us a Good run of it... We had a go I the snow adventure park and a timed Slalom which 
Mr T just took the title with 28 seconds and Renne put the rest of us to shame!! I then went off to join the top group.....!!!!! My god! They can move, what an afternoon of skiing... I've lost all sensation in my legs and even managed to pile in right in front of the group.. That'll teach me to try to keep up with Henry and India! 

The other group also did some straight line speed tests and were clocking 70kph  and most managed to stop (either before the net or in the net!!)

One of the best days skiing I've ever had and the kids are absolutely buzzing tonight.. We are trying to keep up!!

Quick shop visit again to restock on the essentials and quiz night with cash prizes for the top three teams... A good night had by all... 

Plenty of photos today of the groups I skied with and hopefully have managed to get photos of every skier on the blog now!!

Before the pics... And Mr Bucks Twonk blog Molly and Lilly have written a few words for us tonight....

Fourth day in and loving life here in Austria! Hotel takes a bit of getting used to but hey ho you just have to hit the slopes and take in the beautiful scenery. Liv has turned into the new Adele after belting it out on the karaoke whilst on the bus. Our instructors Elia and Rick helped us develop our skiing skills within a couple of sessions from not being able to stand up or stop ourselves on the nursery slope to destroying the blue slope! We won the quiz tonight and each of our purses are now €10 heavier thanks to our generous teachers for donating towards the winning prize, this money will soon be spent on fridge magnets and key rings when we visit the town for souvenirs tomorrow.(Look forward to your present mum).

Pics away.....




















(One for Rosie's mum.. Don't worry we still have her!!)
