FIRST TIME

The morning started ridiculously early....7:30 breakfast and then to collect our boots, skis, poles and helmets before the crowds arrived. By 9:30 we were sorted, overheated, thirsty and all rather grumpy...what is wrong with a beach holiday...am I too old for this malarkey .....but once on the slopes it was all ok.
#This is M, O’s girlfriend, and it was her first time....doesn’t she look the part? The Rev and O went off up the mountain with their class. M and I stayed down...it was good to go over the basics again and although M fell over more times than we could count...she got a bit wobbly and overheated in the morning but has done really well and did the long nursery slope by the end of the day.
The Rev took me up to mid station and I did one of the bigger blue runs...stopping briefly for a mug of Gluhwein....shame it was diluted by snowflakes!!!
Thankful for....a good first day skiing shame The Rev has lost his wallet with all our spending money in...aarrgghh. “oh well it’s only money”
I suppose after last year he’s right.
