Today started with us visiting one of our fellow guests rooms to check on his sons badly burnt faces. One of the boys, Nick, had swollen lips, but both lads had badly blistered faces. We advised them to consider using Sun block and not to go out skiing today. Their father John had not realised that they could burn quite so quickly this time of year.
So, after breakfast, another sunny day beckoned, the pistes had been over bashed and the temperature had plummeted over night so the slopes were quite hard. We took our skies down to the shop to get them edged, which made a big difference.

After a coffee, we headed over to Hochgurgl where the sun was in and out but the snow at the top was sublime. At times the clouds really came in and caused white out conditions.
We managed to find some more powder and made some great powder tracks!
We felt a tad tired after 6 hours, so went to the spa area in the hotel. The sauna’s etc. are all massive and you are only allowed into the area in your birthday suit.
We had a few drinks and then off to dinner. We met John and Jade, a father and daughter from Bristol. She is only 11 and John has semi retired and is now into local politics. We chatted the evening away and then went to bed, exhausted but happy!
