January and Bulgaria
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY
The week after disney land was pretty miserable for me as i had a bad cold and a few days off work. I did manage though to go out for dinner on Dunc's birthday :) We went to a nice little restaurant/pub with vic and grant and magnus and nicole. It was a fairly quiet affair as pretty much the rest of our friends had all gone home for christmas. Then on Wednesday we went and saw Lord of the Rings the Musical. It was.... interesting.... don't get me wrong it was really good, the sets and effects were amazing and they did pretty well at condensing the story into a 2 hour play..... but the elves... the elves and their hands - for those of you yet to see it I will let you come to your own conclusions.
That weekend I worked :(
The weekend after I worked :(
The weekend after that we went to Bulgaria Yay!
We went back to the same chalet that we stayed at last time we were skiing in Bulgaria. Matt and Jenny hosted us again, and once again Jennys cooking did not disappoint. We had a different home cooked breakfast everymorning, cake waiting for us when we came off the slopes, and then a delicious three course meal for dinner..... lets just say this was not one of those holidays that i lost weight on :) Nope! there is certainly no chance of me fading away. The weather was beautiful for the first couple of days and then we had intermittent snow for the next few days, which wasn't all that great for the visibility but excellent for the slopes. Vic, Bel and I went riding on Thursday in the Bulgarian mountains which was lovely. Dunc and I had a great time, although i don't think the same could be said for everyone else. Nicole (Duncan's cousins' wife) broke her wrist learning to snow board on the first day, then on the second day, Leann broke her wrist!!!! Who would of thought it was statistically possible for two people in the same group of 12 to break their right wrists in one week.
Fortunately dunc and I arrived back in London with no injuries apart from the scars left by the emotional trauma suffered driving home from Gatwick airport. We recovered on Saturday night and Sunday by watching the entire Lord of the Rings extended versions.... i know i know you are asking how could we, but seriously you need a holiday to recover from a snowboarding holiday.
Well tonight we will succumb to the mass advertising and commercialisim that is St Valentine's day and go out for dinner :)
Hope you are all having a good day and good week.
