BARSC in Petzen 2009

We arrived on the 18th December in a very snowy Petzen!! We managed to escape the English snow which was creating chaos back home. It snowed all night and the following morning in -20 degrees we went to ski and have fun with Dad. The powder was wicked.



On the sunday whilst slalom training, Daniel took a nasty fall on his last run which resulted in him being wagoned off the slope and driven for 97 minutes to Klagenfurt hospital in an ambulance. Mum frantically followed the ambulance on the unknown,dark,icey back route!! Dad accompanied the patient. (Thanks to her Barry Manilow CD which she is only allowed to listen to on her own...her nerves were not as shattered as they could have been!!) The Hospital was amazing.. the ambulance drove straight into the reception, no messing. By the short time it took to park the car and incidentally not have to buy a parking ticket, Daniel was ready to be x - rayed.Good news... The catsuit wasn't cut off... Bad news, Left leg immobolised and given a pair of Krankenhaus poles which are nowhere near as cool as his Komperdell pair!
