From Qatar to Monday Night.

After a marathon trip we arrived safely at our destination the hotel Kleon in the village of Vent. Austria. The temperature guage on the bus steadily dropped as we got closer to our destination. It was -20 outside when we arrived.

We have now had two successful days on the snow. Everyone has managed to ski without incident. The equipment is excellent. It has so far been the coldest ski trip that any of the staff have been on. The children are coping really well with the conditions wearing multiple layers to keep warm. However, we have also discovered that it is easy to warm up once you get going.

Sunday's evening entertainment was a film night which was followed by a great night's sleep for all. Everyone even managed to sleep beyond their normal Qatar wake up times. Tonight's entertainment is a quiz.

More video and photos of the action will be posted over the coming days.
