LOL @ Edge's post, that's the scene where he kills the dog, right? LOL
Luckily no dogs killed this trip.
A great trip. Snow wasn't spectacular but staying with the kids was tons of fun. My nephew from Brasil learned to ski, on the last day we took him to the top and went down a 6km run all the way to the bottom. He was thrilled
I didn't take too many pictures but here's a few:
One of the tops of the lifts:
My nephew in red, first time ever on a real ski run (he spent 2 days on the beginner hill). Daughter on the left
This was 1 time I managed to get some time by myself to go explore off the beginner trails. Had a mild epiphany about 5 minutes before I took this photo... it is truly a surreal experience to realize that you are literally playing on mountains, and the wonder of just being on a mountaintop, silent, snow and forest.. Super weird and amazing
My nephew beating my son at chess after skiing:
cool outdoor skating rink with lights that change colors etc. They had no zamboni so the ice was terrible for skating, but it was beautiful to slide around on with our shoes/boots
Place we rented. Nice condo-style with several separate units. Ski-in ski-out behind. Didn't use it much thought because the trail was kind of hard for the kids, but we were literally 5 mins from the base so it was really easy to drive/drop off/pick up as we pleased.
Amazing time. Even with kind of crappy conditions and 3 kids to manage all day, snowboarding is still totally my absolute favorite thing in this world to do. Can't wait for next year, hopefully fortune will allow me another trip.
