OPSKIOpski is Cardiff Optometry's very own ski trip. Now in it's eighth year the annual trip takes place every January during reading week before the start of the new lectures and practicals. We fly to Barcelona and are transported to the idilic resort of Panticosa in the Pyrenees. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced skiier the resort caters for all.
Despite a lack of snow on the resort last January at Panticosa snowboarders and skiers enjoyed 5 days on the slopes at a nearby resort with more runs and a snow park for two days. The week was rounded off with a trip to the leisure centre where they took part in rock climbing and swimming before relaxing in the Jacuzzi, Turkish bath and sauna. Students of all years enjoyed dinner at different local venues every evening where they got to sample local cuisine as well as some traditional British favourites, all washed down with 'all you can drink' amounts of red wine! Dinner was always followed by an array of activities including board games, dancing and the ever popular karaoke! OPSKI will be running once again this year so if this sounds like your sort of thing, get in touch with our Sports Secs or Vice President for more details! |
