New York, New York

We had a brilliant day in New York yesterday even though it rained all the time! The lovely brown bags from Bloomingdales unfortunately were ruined by the wet weather but the clothes were fine. Have a feeling some will have excess baggage with the amount they have bought. Times Square and Hard Rock Cafe was an excellent end to the day. We are now on the coach heading back to the city for a day of sightseeing and the sun is just starting to break through!

Last night in Mount Snow

The last 2 days has seen the skiing ability of everyone come on in leaps and bounds. Everyone is tired but very excited about going into New York tomorrow morning. We are all on a high from our last day of skiing and wish we could stay longer to ski. Some great frienships have been made not only the students but with their ski instructors as well especially 'Uncle Greg'. We will be leaving Mount Snow 13.30 GMT hopefully arriving in New York City 18.30 GMT. You may not hear from any of the students but we will try to update this blog tomorrow night.

Great day!

We had a brilliant day yesterday good skiing and a great disco! The weather was slightly warmer and everyone is now able to ski more of the mountain as they improve. Pizza and disco evening was a great success with the kids throwing some shapes on the dance floor, watch out for the videos!

Coldest day ever!!!!

Good day yesterday though it was absolutely freezing, the wind felt like a thousand needles attacking your face at once! Good progress was made by all and today should be even better as it is snowing. Everyone enjoyed Snow Tubing last night even though it was -14!!!! It is 8.15am and we are just getting ready to set off for our 3rd day which should be fantastic. Happy holidays!!!!!!!!

Great First day skiing!!

We have had a really good first day, great snow and some sunshine! It was snowing first thing and it made a great start to the day. Sorry for the delay in calling home but have only just been able to get hold of the phone cards. Tomorrow looks good with more snow forecast.

Landed safely!

We are all safe and sound relaxing on the coach on our way to Mount Snow.

Everyone has been really excited since we got to Heathrow and have been fantastic, a real credit to us!

We drove really close past New York from the other side of the river giving them a fantastic view of what's to come.

We still have another 2 hours to resort so further updates will follow.

Bye for now!

Leaving soon...
