Skiing!


Bristol Mountain

We skied at Bristol Mountain on Tuesday and we had some great snow. It wasn`t too busy so we had 4 instructors between 4 of us. Phil went off on his own with another instructor and I stayed with the boys. The boys did extremely well for their first time. After many falls and many laughs, they finally got the hang of it. It didn`t take long until they were hooked!

 The ski lifts were a challenge for me personnally. I just couldn`t seem to get off them without falling. I almost stayed on the one and then I jumped off too late and I ended up crashing over the barrier. After telling the instructor that I would go on the ski lift with Murray because I knew what I was doing - well it appeared that I didn`t  know what I was doing!? I hope I will have better luck on Friday when we go skiing again!
Murray did a lot of these!!

We will go skiing on the weekend again so we are all looking forward to testing our skills again! The weather has warmed up but we will have snow on the weekend but I think after that the snow will all start to melt. Well, we had been praying for snow for our first week and then we don`t mind the weather warming up after that as we will be on the road a lot after this week.

We have  4 more days left with the Millers and I feel really sad that our time with them is coming to an end.........
