Top Ten Things You Don't Want to Hear on Ski Trip (aka, My Weekend Trip to Panorama)

10. "I forgot my jacket!"
9. "Because of the weather, we might arrive a little late, 2/3am instead of midnight" (tour guide at the beginning of the trip)
8. "We're just going to pull over for a few minutes and check something out with the bus."
7. "A mechanic is coming to check out the bus, he'll be here in 40 minutes."
6. "The mechanic says he can't fix the bus here, and it'll have to go back to Red Deer to be fixed. You guys can wait here in Innisfail."
5. "I can't get a hold of the bus driver, but I'm sure he's on his way back to Innisfail."
4. "I think we'll get there around 6 or 7am."
3. "Hmm... well, your front wheel is about an inch from the ditch" (tour guide to bus driver, as bus driver attempts to manoeuver bus up snowy hill)
2."I have zero control right now! ZERO!" (bus driver as the bus slides backwards down a hill)
1. "It's 7:45am and we've arrived!" (okay, this I did want to hear... but I wished it wasn't 7:45am!)
