With all the snow and crap UK weather we’ve had lately, we were somewhat worried that our flight to Aberdeen on Christmas Eve wasn’t going to happen, but as it turned out, the hardest part of the trip was getting to the airport (seems we weren’t the only ones trying to catch a train to Luton).
Thankfully we managed to squeeze on to the second train that came along, and from there it was smooth sailing. We were very pleased to see Wes and Stacey’s smiling faces on the other side of the arrival gate! And Hotel Bramley is lovely and warm – a stark contrast to -1°C that it is outside at the moment.
Our Christmas day followed the tried and true formula: A fry-up for breakfast, opening presents, a few board games, a massive “lunch” (at 5 PM), then falling asleep on the couch in front of a movie. We all blamed the tryptophan in the turkey.
Tomorrow we’re off to Cairngorm Mountain where we’ll stay overnight, to see if we can get in a day of skiing on Sunday. Apparently they’re having the best conditions they’ve had for 15 years. Should be a hoot!
Hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas, and that you’re all enjoying your time off work.
