Day 2 - Evening

Day 2 Evening Update


Evening meal

Starter - Bacon and egg salad.

Main – Roast pork, roast potatoes and broccoli.

Dessert – Apple crumble and custard.

A lot of empty plates again.

Evening activity – Bum boarding

Bum boarding made its first appearance on a Salterford Skiing trip two years ago and was enormous fun again. It really should be an Olympic sport. If it ever does, Salterford may have a potential future champion in Lois. Nobody could beat her, everyone tried and failed. The staff tried to blame a technical advantage. Something fishy about the design of her board? Had she sneaked a tin of Mr Sheen to wax the bottom? Sometimes you have to hold your hands up and admit defeat!

The children were then treated to a showing of the movie Despicable Me in the games room. It was a great opportunity to relax and reflect on the fun packed day we had just had.

Each evening, several awards are handed out.

Skiers of the day – Amelia and Danielle.

This year sees the introduction of “The beret of shame”. A truly hideous piece of headgear which has to be worn by the winner until the end of breakfast the next day. The inaugural “winner” of the beret was Katie who managed to take out Mr Martindale in spectacular fashion earlier in the day.

More fun tomorrow, the weather forecast is for another day of glorious sunshine. The perfect conditions for a jacketless skier :)
