Day 2 - making great progress!

Another gorgeous day here in Pamporovo - we'll be coming home with amazing suntans if this weather continues! Our super skiers put on plenty of sunscreen and they've enjoyed today's lessons on the nursery slopes.

We've also been celebrating Mjay's birthday by embarrassing him with our singing in a crowded restaurant, presenting him with his cards from family and his teachers and ski buddies and finally helping to eat his amazing birthday cake! Happy birthday, Mjay - this has definitely been a day to remember! We're now all safely back at the hotel and enjoying a swim.

Last night's bowling was fantastic fun.  A few were a little disappointed to find that there were no bumpers down the sides but we all had lots of fun with our teammates. Unsurprisingly, they were all shattered at bedtime last night after all the fresh air and exercise!  You'll be pleased to know that we have received loads of compliments about the children's manners and behaviour from the other adults in our hotel - we expect nothing less from our fabulous Brooklands kids.

Tonight we're heading back to the slopes for Ringos - we expect to hear lots of excited squealing!

Don't forget to check the webcams to see if you can spot us! We're hoping to go up to the top of the mountain tomorrow so there's every chance that you'll see us go past. The link to the webcams is on the web version of this blog so if you're using the mobile version on your phone, scroll to the bottom of the page and switch to the web version.  The first two webcams are your best bet.  Don't forget that we are two hours ahead so check between 8am and 1pm.

Keep commenting!
