Monday

Monday morning was the start of the ski trip. We had to go to the school parking lot. When we came there we saw a bus already waiting on us so we loaded our things and got to the bus. TBH the road was longer than I expected but it was nice we talked played music and we could feel that our class was getting more together which was very nice. When we arrived we got keys to our rooms we didn't expect anything special but a huge relief was when we found out we had warm water after some time we got our lunch and our first skiing session could start we didn't ski much but the main thing was getting us to the group based on our ski level. Once that was finished we came back to the hotel and then we had dinner and some free time. We weren't allowed to visit each other's rooms so we came up with a walkaround, we were meeting in the hall. It was freezing there but it was the only solution left for us.

Tuesday

Our day started way too early for us. We had to wake up before 7 am so we had time for everything. We went exhausted on the breakfast which was pretty good and then our first full ski day was next we were really excited when we got to the ski centrum we went to our group and we were basically skiing the whole day when we got to our hotel we had lunch then some free lunch or siesta and the last action was a short walk it was pretty nice and we enjoyed this day.

Wednesday

On Wednesday we started our day a bit later than Tuesday. We knew what to expect in the morning so we were lying in our beds until around 7:25, we prepared and went to breakfast. The day was pretty average, we were skiing until 2 o'clock when we went back to our hotel to eat lunch and relax. After „free time“ when we were allowed to just lay in our beds and we couldn't leave our rooms, we went shopping. I (Marek) may have won the prize for the most expensive purchase in coop jednota that day. After all that, we had our dinner, where they told us that they will only give us our phones if we are going to dance at the disco they prepared. Some boys were scared, but we said, why not? After all the disco was amazing, we completely destroyed ourselves there. We have been dancing there for nearly 2 hours. It was a lot of fun, but it had its consequences, we felt those on the snow the next day.

Thursday

We woke up totally destroyed. Maybe the dancing wasn't a good idea at all. Whatever, we just had to deal with it and enjoy our breakfast. We were skiing 'till 2 and then went on lunch. There was an activity in the afternoon. Basically, we were thrown in front of the hotel on a field that was completely covered in snow. We were throwing snowballs, throwing each other on the ground, yeah, it was fun. I still have dirt marks on my jacket from it. After that, there was another disco, but it wasn't the same as the first one. It just didn't have that “vibe”. So tired, and bored, we started packing things because tomorrow we were leaving. Good night.

Friday

The last day. We woke up early, finalized packing and went to breakfast. After that, we've gone skiing one last time, but just for 2 hours. We said our goodbyes to Tále and headed back to the hotel. Here we dressed in our casual clothes. We hopped on the bus and went home. Nearly everyone slept through the way. We were in Bratislava by 4 PM and that is the end of our trip. In conclusion, the trip was amazing. It connected a lot of people in our class more, created new or better friendships and we all had a lot of fun. We (Marek and Samco) were sadly unable to capture skiing because we were in different skiing groups and we couldn't show you a lot in our free time because we had no phones. But I think it was a good thing. Without phones, we had to come up with convos and ways to cure boredom outside of mobile phones. We hope that this wasn't our last trip with our class and we are thrilled for new adventures with all of you, my friends!
