Skiing {prepare to laugh} « Thread Started on Jan 2, 2008, 1:43pm »
This is an in-depth analysis of my...erm, interesting experience in Breckenridge, CO. I had three days of skiing. I didn't keep a journal, but the basic points of my trip are all there (If anyone really cares, that is; I'm so conceited).
Day One:
Ski lessons from 9 till 3.30, none of the promised snacks and hot chocolate, only tiny slices of cold pizza. Extreme boredom because of demented eight-year-olds dragging the supposed-to-be-ten & up class down. Not to mention that I was the only teenager there. Dx
Day Two:
First day skiing outside of ski school, with Haley, Mom, Marla, and Jordan. Split up into me, Haley, & Mom. Big wipe-out on very last run of the day, and, sadly, no helmet cam to record. Had to pole painfully most of way down the slope due to stupid powder. However, lots of fun...most were impressed with my ability to go down the steeper slopes. Even if all green.
Day Three:
Last day skiing, this day only until 11.30 because of need to pack. Skiing with Haley, Mom, and Kari. Finally got turning down, and lost a pole getting off the fastest ski lift ever at the mid drop-off station. Otherwise, fairly awesome. Got three + ft. of air after taking a path through the forest edge and skiing over sheer ledge. Scared nearly out of mind.
