Saturday 4th March

Good evening from a snowing Torgon.

It has been an extremely long couple of days so we are very happy to have arrived at our destination. With delays on the ferry, we landed in Calais at about 1.30 this morning and then with further traffic arrived into resort much later than we hoped. We all got some sleep but the children were very ready for bed this evening and are now catching up on sleep ready for their first day on the slopes.

The highlight of the journey was definitely our shout out by Simon Mayo on Radio 2, Friday evening. It was a great mention and you will probably be still able to hear it on the Radio 2 podcast (I think Simon mentioned us about 6.10pm which might help finding it).

Very few photos as yet because we have been super busy unpacking and sorting ski hire but hoping to get lots tomorrow from their first day in the mountains.

Thank you for your comments which I will share with the children tomorrow.

Goodnight from a very tired Miss Wheeler and team :)

  5. Bit of a slog of a journey for everyone by the sounds of it but it will be worth it today when you play in the snow on the slopes- you could be here in the rain instead !!!! ! As for the 'shout out' on Simon Mayo - how fab was that. Well done Miss Wheeler. Finally made it onto radio 2 drive time Morgan! ⛷
