On the 6th of February 2010, twenty girls from The Girls Model went on the annual ski trip. This year, we travelled to Pomporova, Bulgaria to hit the slopes. We left early Saturday morning and we didn’t arrive at the Hotel until 7pm that night.

We stayed in the Hotel Snezhanka which was very good place to stay. While the food was a bit different to home, the hotel was clean and really busy with lots going on. We met pupils from other Schools throughout Northern Ireland.

The next day we got up at 7 o’clock for our first day of Skiing, we were very tired after the long journey, but seeing the slopes we soon forgot how tired we were.

We spent the first few days were spent learning the basics of how to Ski with Demeter and Valentine, the two Ski Instructors. We had many laughs although many tears we shed when we fell down the slopes.

Unfortunately Zara and Megan fell and hurt themselves and where unable to ski every day. It wasn’t all skiing though, as we had great fun having snowball fights and building snow men.

In the evenings we went Tenpin Bowling and boogied at the Disco. Miss Willis was the Champion Bowler, although we secretly thought that she cheated! She was also the Dancing Queen as she got up every night and danced the night away! Miss Irvine was a really good skier; we all thought that she should have been in the Olympic Team, she wishes!

We all had a fantastic time and hopefully we will be back next year, roll on February 2011!We would all like to thank Miss Willis and Miss Irvine for looking after us and making the trip really enjoyable!
