Yesterday (Monday) we decided to head up to a good blue run that Paul thought would suit us as a group, so we suited up and jumped on the bus, heading for the 'glacier' on Kitzsteinhorn.
We jumped straight onto the first of two cable cars to take us up to the top of the mountain, and were immediately rewarded with a view from above the clouds
What a view!
The mountains in the bright morning sunshine were simply amazing, but lots of other boarders / skiiers thought so too :-)
The run was way more steep than the nursery slope that we learnt on, but Paul, Lisa and Simon guided us down the run to start with, so we knew the layout and where the tricky parts were
We all jumps straight into it after that, and sped down the slopes as fast as we could getting in everyone's way an generally having a blast. We stopped half way through at the midpoint of the run for a cheeky hot chocolate with rum before carrying on and after a couple of hours we were knackered but smiling, even if Georgia couldn't stay upright!
Once we made it back down to Terra firma, a plan was hatched for getting everyone to the Pavilion, a nice cheesy bar in town for drinks to celebrate the forthcoming nuptials, and even though it's the day before the wedding, too much beer was consumed!
