Zermatt – Goodbye Comfort.... hello BASI Level 1!
08/02/2010

Last week was the most serious week we’ve had so far, we had to say good bye to the comforting skiing compliments of Brenden and start are BASI Level 1 exams! Although, as with any exams, I didn’t find it the most exciting thing in the world, we all grew into the challenge and by Friday the hard work paid off and we had all passed.

The new Ski Instructors!!

Success on the slopes lead to success in the town – a two o’clock start to a two am finish in Zermatt’s diverse bars was a tremendous effort by anyone’s standards!

Our first aid course over the weekend had arrived just in time for some, and was actually much more fun than anyone expected. Flora, who took charge of us was really cool and managed to balance our jokey mood after Friday with some much more important life skills. All in all last week was a great week, and despite it being minus 30 at the top, we are all only warming to Zermatt more and more.
