Bradley’s Snow Trip – Tuesday 17th

These are my entries from Facebook for those that aren’t my “friends”:

07:18  Neither of our alarms went off this morning for some reason, but we blame Matt. Had 5 minutes after Mr. Connell woke us up to get to breakfast. I had jam on toast and bacon but others had spaghetti from a can and eggs (which were runny). 15 minutes until the days skiing starts and i plan to take a group of around 5 skier…s and boarders to the summit and take them on the wishing well

16:24  Had my first lesson for the week with Josef who was always trying to push us over. We went on the summit and most of us survived except Bec and Molly who had to slide down on their bums. Skied around with about 10 people around Highway 83, Main street and fox trail until lunch. Took last hoot back to the lodge and had pizza-toast for lunch. After lunch me and 8 others went to ruined castle with Ms Bradley and Ms constantopolous. The snow was great and the sun was warm, but as the clouds rolled in the snow got icy and the weather dropped. Spent most of the time on the ruined castle and south peak before meeting up at a cafe and taking Scott’s lift to the top…Skied down day’s end and followed the roads to the lodge, but the snow had melted a lot and so it was not enjoyable for any of us. It was only when we found out the time that we decided we could go for another run down wombats with Beth and Zoe joining in. Then i had a shower and then a group photo in front of the lodge

20:42  Dinner was roast lamb and veges. After that we had sticky date pudding with ice cream. For once i was waiting for room inspection. Ms. Bradley and Ms. Beadnall walked into our room to find Josh and Kettle hanging on coathangers in the closet and then turned to see me under Richo’s bed asleep and Matt on Josh’s bed…?…The teachers then inspected the bathroom to find Shannon with his pants down on the toilet. They were delighted. A+++ again and we’re going to top ourselves again tomorrow. stay tuned.

Bradley’s Snow Trip – Monday 16th

These are my entries from Facebook for those that aren’t my “friends”:

11:26  Back for lunch. some people are unhappy with their abilities at skiing or snowboarding but most are having a great time. after skiing the fresh powder with the teachers and other second or third (or ninth) time skiers while the rest of the students had their first skiing or boarding lesson we all met up at cloud 9. We made groups and chose teachers as our guardians and went out skiing. Because i am a good skier along with others we had no teacher and went whereever. after losing my group i joined another and spent a while helping Zoe Harry Kewell Smet and Beth Smith off the ground and down Drovers Dream until Shannon Chiappini… came to join us and we headed back to the lodge for lunch down wombats ramble.

12:01 lunch was shepards pie and cornflake cookies. Meeting in 5 to discuss new groups based on skill rather than friendship

16:49 great day of skiing. Weather cleared up after lunch and the snow was smoother to ski on. Saw many people go really well for their first time skiing. Lifts closed 15 minutes ago. Harry and I took an extended way to get home which requred no walking up hills carrying skis. The route was Rudi’s to Village Runto Broadway to Ory’s to Parallel St. to Alberg st. to Slalam st. to Christie st to Halley’s lodge. in the end it took double what the normal route would’ve and harry crashed 4 times.

22:18  spent a good hour preparing the weeks antics at room inspection time. Tonight we all sat around Jevan who was readng a bible, not moving or talking as Ms Bradley inspected our room. She gave us the best mark of the entire ski trip, an A+++. Diner was boiled veges mash and beef. We then threw cards at each other (we cle…aned them up after) and played blackack in our room until lights out
