hey all,
just wondering if anyone has booked for jan 12th 2007? a mate and i are goin for a week, neither of us has even seen snow before so should be an interesting trip...

Hi,

We are booked on the same tour. There are a few of us that went last year meeting up again
Where are you from??

CJ

Hi Nikki,

I've booked for Jan 12th for 2 weeks, I'm going to pay for it 2 moro! I haven't seen snow either so like wise, should be interesting.

How many is a few Cj27?

Are either of you doing any other tours?

Look forward to seeing you all!

Hi Andrew,

There are 4 definites and 3 possibles going! My boyfriend hadn't seen snow till August when we went on a quick practice trip to NZ - he loved it. I had not been skiing before I went to Hopfgarten and I had a blast. The instructors are really good.

We are also going on the European Inspiration trip after skiing. What about you??

CJ

Hey CJ

I'm getting to London on the 1st of December, staying with my cousin and then going on the Euro discovery tour on the 5th of December. So far I haven't heard from anyone about that!

The skiing is pretty much the last thing I'm doing before I come home, I leave on the 28th of Jan, so I don't think I'll have any trouble sleeping on that flight. Good to hear the instructors are top notch, I signed up for the 5 lessons, I reckon I'll need them!

Are you going to be in London before for a while? It would be cool to catch up before we get on the bus!

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

I checked your tour on 5th Dec - it says Call for Availability which usually means its almost full!!

Skiing last isn't a bad idea as it can be hard work. 5 Lessons is a great idea - to be honest it's quite frustrating for the first day or two but then once you get the hang of it it's a blast!

We arrive in London at lunchtime the day the tour goes but keen to catch up for a beer before the trip - great little pub just around the corner from the Royal National.

Are you going by yourself??

CJ

hi CJ & andrew,
good to see theres more ppl on this tour. i get to london on nov 29th but am doing the euro vista tour on dec 4 and some independent travel with my 2 of my mates beforehand. leave to come back to perth on jan 23. did you do the paragliding last time cj? if so, was it any good?

hey nikki, cj, andrew.

going to hopfgarten on the 12th jan for 2 weeks. haven't been skiing before, but it sounds like a blast. also first time on contiki..

i see you guys have got a lot more planned than just the skiing trip. the contiki tours any good?

Hi Nikki, Andrew & Tommy,

Firstly .. how exciting to have a celeb on tour .. Tommy Hlfgr .. can you get us cheap stuff :-P

Nikki, I didnt' do the parapenting due to the weather but I wanted to.

Tommy - You will have an awesome time skiing and yes the other contiki tours are great - this will be my fourth trip!

hey cj

i can get a bunch of stuff cheaply, if you don't mind the chinese spelling of Tommy Hilfiger

4th trip huh? there must be something to contiki tours then.. haven't really looked at too many tours. Just wanted to go skiing and snowboarding when i booked

I arrive in london on the 12th at about 12. hear it's easy to get to the royal national and there's a pub round the corner? maybe there'll be time for a pint then. The bus leaves at 3pm i think.. anyone else gonna be there?

-Tom

hey tom,
my friend and i are taking the bus to hopfgarten. thought we might be the only ones! we are doing so much flying around that we figured that at least this way we might get to catch up on some sleep. we are staying at the royal national the night before so will have plenty of time to kill on the 12th...

Hey all,

I havn't posted in ages! I'm going on the bus as well so there is one more person for you! I'm not staying at the hotel the night before but I would be keen to catch up with anyone leaving on the 12th at the pub around the corner that every one is talking about. Won't want to drink too much though - that would make the bus ride pretty uncomfortable!

I'm am heading of to London on Thursday so Happy New Year in advance and look forward to seeing you on the 11th for that meeting!

Andrew

hey nikki, andrew

i thought from what i read under the other topics that the bus is gonna be packed. A bit of legroom isn't too bad though..
Killing time or catching up in the pub'd set the holiday off to a great start.

anyone know though, if they wait for ppl that are late? Just figured, that any delay of any of the flights might make me miss the bus.
And do you rent the ski-clothes or do you bring your own?

-Tom

Hey Everyone,

Tommy - the bus doesn't wait for anyone. There rule is for all tours if you miss the bus anywhere its your own responsibilty to make it to next town. What time does your flight arrive?

The bus was packed when I went but nearly all the tours always are. We are both taking the bus along with another friend.

22 Sleeps till we leave the country! So excited.

Ciao for now
CJ
