Snow, Skiing and Skating!

We experienced another day of quite poor visibility at the top of the mountain!

That didn't stop our girls though! Excellent progression was made in all groups.....

The Advanced group, led by their instructor Luca, skied much of the valley! John stated how the girls thoroughly enjoyed skiing the moguls.

The Intermediate's ( Miss Ladbrook's group) were on a high after skiing their first Black Run and Moguls!!

Congratulations again to the beginners....they are doing brilliantly and are now mastering the button and chair lifts.

This evening we all went ice skating... Quite cold as it was an outdoor rink! The girls came into their own and certainly showed some excellent moves and even helped some of the teachers to skate! Thank you girls.

We are hopeful for a break in the weather tomorrow! A fabulous time is being had by all!
