Folks,
We are travelling in three groups to this one, the one I am in arrived safely in the early hours this morning, group two to follow this afternoon and group three in the early hours of tomorrow morning.
The setting here is simply stunning. From my hotel room balcony I am looking at the finishing hill and line of the downhill skiing. The hotel seems nice but a few parents are going to ask for a nicer room if this is possible.
Our hotel is within ten minutes walk of the two hotels they are using as playing venues so heading off shortly to check them out.
The organisers are providing us with free bus and cable car passes to the main town from our mountain base which is very helpful.
At the moment there are plenty of good quiet nooks and crannies for prep and analysis purposes but may become scarcer as some bigger squads arrive, England in particular who are sharing our hotel. Hope to speak to their Head of Delegation so we can sort something out of mutual benefit for the duration.
Anyway, off on a stroll to check out playing venues.
Robin.
