Instead of relaxing and recharging batteries at half-term, 26 flew off to misty Nassfeld, Austria, for a week of skiing.
By the end of the day one, instructor Craig was so impressed with the beginner group that he called them lower intermediates and took them straight up the mountain where they tackled red runs with ease.
The other intermediate group had Anthony who always looked for those ‘off-piste’ lumps and bumps and trees to use. I joined his group to find that my ski legs did not have as much stamina as the rest of the group – I slept well those nights.
Callum, our ski rep, had the pleasure of guiding the advanced group and he constantly gave them pointers and targets to make their skiing better.
Away from the slopes, we swam, played in the Games room, went bowling, played Bingo, enjoyed film and pizza nights and an unforgettable visit to the Nassfeld Snowman festival!
