SATURDAY 28TH DECMBER - WE'VE ARRIVED!

As a bit of a starter to the blog...the journey is progressing well. We stopped for breakfast at the planned stop of Macon and are now slightly ahead of time. We are starting to see the distant, snow-peaked mountains on the horizon and will soon start our ascent with an ETA of 12.30pm in resort.

THE LAST FULL DAY!!  The students received their skiing awards for the week on the last full day in resort.

The rounds included clips of music from films and TV shows, speed rounds, ‘the classics’ as well as a rock ‘n’ roll guitar round. By the end we had all students on their feet, singing along to ‘Don’t Stop Believing’ by Journey and Queen’s ‘We Will Rock You’. What a night!!
