Today marks the end of the first week of October 2008 training. Firstly an update on Robbie; he is back, live and kicking having slept for 17 hours in the past day.
Once again today we trained slalom, however, due to it being the weekend we were only able to use gates until 10.30 before the public moved in. The lift was also due to open earlier, but that plan soon fell though as we were still queuing at the normal opening time.
After skiing instead of normal fitness we went on the Rodelbobahn, which is basically a luge on rails. We often have a go on the last day as it is a quick and fun alternative to games. I wasn’t as scared a last year, when I went on with Will Cave and spent the entire run shouting ‘ahhh we’re going to die!’.

As I said yesterday this evening we marked not one, but three birthdays; Emily and Katie Wingrove’s whose birthday was today and also Matthew who’s birthday is tomorrow. Manuela insisted that we sung happy birthday 3 times to celebrate as well.
K Birthdays!
Well that really is the end, the end of the training week and also the end of this blog. Tomorrow we leave for the UK; not that this means that we can get up any later – no, 5.45 tomorrow! Luckily the clocks do fall back an hour!
Anyway enough about tomorrow, here ends the camp – Goodbye!
