WE'VE ARRIVED!

We left Eastbourne for Austria at 7:30 this morning and we arrived in St. Anton around 4:30. The airport was very quiet so we were straight through check-in and security without any hassle which left us a couple of hours to have a nice English breakfast in a Gatwick Weatherspoons! I needed some extra spending money but found it hard to part with £23.26 in exchange for only 20 Euros but i suppose it's worth it just in case i need to buy a new leg or something! 

The Plane journey was pretty good but it was rubbish wether for looking out of the window although seeing the mountains when we started to approach Innsbruck was amzing to say the least. The outside air temp in the sky was -74F so Ali got to seeing some frost forming on his window which momentarily distracted him from singing along to his High School Musical soundtrack.

When we got to Innsbruck airport we then had to find our taxi driver to St. Anton. Dad was worried that he hadn't turned up but after a few minutes he held up his sign with Mr Haydon on. He did not speak much English but he could say 'so' and 'St. Anton' but that didn't really matter as we all fell asleep anyway.

So.... we arrived and found our Chalet very quickly and it's like a mini Hotel inside and is lovely and warm. Me and Ali are sharing a room which is cool and Dad has a room just next door. About 1o minutes after we arrived Alec's friends arrived and the are very nice so i am sure they will look after us. We have just come back from getting ourselves equiped for the week with Boot's and Ski's and now we are waiting for our meeting at 7:30 in the lounge where there will be canopes and drink and then our evening meal which we our all looking forward to very much. 

Tomorrow morning i will take some pictures so you can all see the beautiful scenery that we are surrounded by and i will also tell you how our first proper Ski lesson goes!
