the weather in the morning wasnt the best for skiing ,the clouds were low which really has a huge impactton visibility when your moving at speed downslope its really important to see where your making your turns , it was snowing on the slopes wbut small drizzle like snow .the kind of drizzle that wets the specs and when moving at speed flies under your glasses making you blink all the time basically rubbish ski conditions ,
we stopped early for lunch at a big mountain top restaurant in rendl ski area it was a big place warm and even better had decent free wifi so we sat for an hour or so eating and catching up on social network , but we bumped into another person that was staying at our chalet and they talked about the condition of the red run back into town which is run number 1 in alberg ski area they said it was rubbish with icy patches loads of mogulled steep sections and a slow single bridge back to the lift , ali said thats it for the day i aint skiing in shit weather on a shit slope !so we were a man down after dinner ,
the slope was not that bad me and cammy took a lift up to the top of the area and skied back into town there was some bits to get the heart raised a beat but nothig we haven’t skied easily before and the best thing was the sun came out !
once back in town we had to walk up the high street and find a cashline bought some juice and a postcard for mum plus a fridge magnet obviously ,then a bubble car up from the centre of town to ski back down to the apartment , i had a big wipeout on a well mogulled red so much so that a girl stopped and asked if i was ok while i was getting myself sorted and back from upside down onto my feet , cammy was long gone oblivious and wondering where the auld yin was ! we then too a wee off piste route back to the back of the chalet , which was bad snow conditions for control i went down twice here also and we both were sweating and knocked when we got down , another good day on the slopes complete ,
Time to meet garry and after much debate we met Ali at bar 37 had a beer walked to the train station and mt gary off the train ,we got a taxi to the ski hire shop and we got him sorted with skis and boots before we went to tom dooleys for a group meeting and beers obviously ,
dinner was excellent and we headed straight out bar cuba and piccadilly which were both busy and rocking people dancing on the bar live bands great music an excellent night , but you can’t have a chat when the music pumping so we had one last beer at our local before bed
