Makes me think I should be home cranking up my promotion instead of skiing!<br /><br />It is amazingly fun though, hard work and keeps my kids off the street. I should add that I AM terrified of breaking a limb and don't do anything daring.<br /><br />Good luck with everything in 2012 ciao ciao catThe Divorced Lady's Companion to Living in Italyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15202093107784073194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-291389383714567128.post-25187364014119364942011-12-29T03:37:01.211-08:002011-12-29T03:37:01.211-08:00Skiing sounds like an absolutely brilliant way to ...Skiing sounds like an absolutely brilliant way to get and keep fit.

We come out every two years as we are quite a big bunch. Christmas for us was pretty flat this year but always good to see family (I confess I was dying to get out of the city and back up to the slopes!)<br /><br />Enjoy the Snowy Mountains. I climbed Mount Kosciusko about a million Decembers ago when I was 16. And now I have my very own 16-year-old, today wearing an acid green python-printed ski jacket!!

I'm a summer gal through and through ... and while a winter Xmas was nice to experience it's, well, just not Xmas! Still, I'm sure skiing is fun if you can do it ... we are off to the Snowy Mountains in a few days for some summer bushwalking.

Today first day of hard skiing, not much snow and zero people - I'm doing telemark, it is crazy tiring but so cool! Let me know about this big move and come hang out next summer!!

Its not even a real summer here as I'm sure you've heard. Our plan is to head north to live in about April 2012 so who knows - that long talked about visit may just happen!!

I signed up when I was younger for a 7 week session. It was terrifying. I subscribed to the theory that at my height the falls were too great and if I was meant to ski, my feet would have been marginally longer but definitely flatter.<br />Then I read your view of it and think, alas, maybe I gave up too soon.
