Skiing has been a blast! Everyone (except Julie!) took to the sport very quickly. We had lessons on Monday and Tuesday mornings then skied in the afternoon on our own. Bob didn't need lessons and went straight for a Black Diamond run on Tuesday morning. He is pointing at the spot where he skied in one of the pictures above. Leah and Jenn started slowly and then started to leave the instructor behind. They kept going higher and higher on the run until they got into the fog, skied out of it and came down the hill. I couldn't go as far up as the rest of the family, but I could get on and off the lift, ski down slowly and even stop before plowing into innocent bystanders. Maria was at the top of the run by the end of Monday morning. She was unbelievable. Then she and Bob spent all of Tuesday afternoon skiing on the other side of the mountain. When I asked Bob about the skill level of the area they were in, he said, "You wouldn't have approved and that's what made it even more fun!"
Obviously, we have had a great time. Tomorrow we leave for our next destination. If you don't already know where we are going, I will give you a clue. We enjoy eating out, but tomorrow won't be our "Last Supper".
