Skiing was AMAZING!

I went skiing in France with https://www.accessibledreams.co.uk/ - a group of differently disabled people. I went in 2019 but only for ‘sit-ski’ so this year I challenged myself to try normal skiing and OMG loved it! Hard work though! I went with my dad (which is strange because I got so used to adventuring with my mum) and we stayed in http://www.araucaria-hotel.com/en/ . Twin room with ensuite, breakfast and dinner included in overall costs. Great hotel with nice rooms, big bar (!!), entertainment area and prime location (right on the slopes). Amazing food too..

*Fun fact: We flew from London Heathrow to Geneva not France!


I was so excited for this trip & sharing it with lovely people I hadn’t seen since 2019. However, I HATE London Heathrow. Why? Because it is manic and have to wait for ages and luggage takes forever! Flying to Geneva went smoothly but the coach ride was soo long and we didn’t get to the hotel til 10pm. Luckily they kept the buffet open for us. Flying home was awful. We flew with BA and was not happy. Our flight was delayed 2hrs, no food on the plane and when we landed on the runway, we couldn’t park and were waiting on runway for 2 more hours + 1hr for luggage! AARRGGHH!

Over the last three years, my family and I had many concerts to go to but because of covid, had to wait til this year (I also bought concert tickets in February). 5 concerts in total in 2 weeks! I experienced - in order - Harry Styles, Queen, Elton John, Billie Eilish & Ed Sheeran !!! I also did the Van Gogh Immersive Experience , Proud Cabaret , Leadenhall Market , Spitalfields Market & Greenwich Market . I stayed at  https://www.hilton.com/ . First time staying at this fairly new hotel. Right in the middle of the city and central to all the venues of the concerts and attractions I wanted to do. I stayed there in a double room with a sofa bed (for when friends stayed too) for the duration of the trip with breakfast included. I got room service on the nights I was too tired to go somewhere for dinner. I went on the tube (which I hated but not as much as my first time), walked, used uber (very safe and secure) & https://www.blacklane.com/en/ taxis for concert nights....
