Welcome to chile

Greetings from chile. After an overnight flight from JFK we landed in Santiago and got our gear together and headed up to La Parva. The kids were a bit tired after sleeping on the plane but over all everything went well.
On the way up to the mountain we stopped at the jumbo supermarket for food and snacks for the next few days. With the size the group it took a while but was well worth it in the end.
After the jumbo we finished the drive up to la parva, making our way through over 40 switchbacks on a very narrow twisting mt road.
We were able to get in about an hour and a half of skiing this afternoon. The girls are settling into camp well and are motivated to work hard and make some important changes. I'm looking forward to the next two weeks on snow.
Here are a couple pictures from the day. I will try to post a few more every day.
See ya tomorrow
