Shopping, Blogs and Twonk

After skiing we headed into Mayrhofen and the pupils picked up their gift and souvenirs.  There is now a national shortage in Austria of chocolate, miniature snow globes and fridge magnets... (sorry - no schnaps!!)



Back to the hotel for dinner and a surprise birthday cake for Lucy who celebrates her 13th birthday today ;-)... Austrians don't do candles - they do pyrotechnics!!!




The last order of the day after the blog report was to award the twonk of the day.. Twonk for Wednesday is deservedly assigned to Sam Pilley for his unconventional ski lift dismounting!!!



I will finish off the blogging today with blogs and messages home from the pupils....

Hi mum,dad and Monty! thanks for commenting dad, it's great to hear form you! Went on my first blue slope today! It was quite steep, but I braved it! We also went on the chair lift! Was a little bit scary at first but after a while I began to enjoy it! My favourite part of skiing is the cable carts because I love e view from up high! ( but it's horrible when it stops in the air!) had to have a break form skiing this morning due to a very painful ankle but it's getting better! Love you all loads and I'm counting down the days to when I'm seeing you all again! Love from Mia xx

Georgie
Hiiii thank you for commenting, that was really nice. You'll never guess what happened to me today - whilst I was skiing - I lost my ski whilst I was on the chair lift! I was really high up in the air and it just dropped off! Teachers were suggesting that it was broken, but it turned out that I had accidentally put on someone else's boot! Also today I'm starting to learn how to turn with my skis parallel, which is really hard. We were on a really fast slope; I'm so glad that I am finally off the nursery slopes! Looking forward to seeing you again, byeeee.

Thats all for today folks.... Catchya tomorrow

  4. Hello! We were proper laughing out loud when I read out that you'd put someone else's boot on! Does that mean someone else was wearing yours? You sound as though you are having a wonderful time. That Boot situation could have been a twonk situation! Byeeeee!!!
