Our journey to Alp D'Huez.

To all family, friends and everyone at West Heath, we have all arrived safe and sound at our hotel in Alp D'Huez. We left school at around 4:20 and the snow was falling when we got off the coach at Gatwick.


After a quick breakfast in the north terminal we boarded our flight on time, but were unable to take off for another 30 minutes, as the runway needed to be cleared of snow.









It was a smooth flight and some found it a little more comfortable than others.



We arrived in Geneva at 10:15 local time and then boarded another coach which carried us for 3 and a half hours to our destination. The route took us up a mountain which involved 21 sharp turns and a few hairy moments.




After a bit of lunch we were fitted with our skiing gear and were given a tour of the resort by our helpful instructor Liam.






After lovely dinner, and a hot chocolate, we are all settling down to an early night with a big day of skiing ahead of us.






Good night from everyone here at Alp D'Huez. Keep track of all our goings and expect lots more posts from us.





Ps just to let you know I beat Anthony at Giant Jenga..................
