Bend ze knees
Wow, this has come around quick! Tomorrow we go to Colorado skiing for the weekend. Last New Year we were supposed to join some friends out there but didn't make it due to appalling weather conditions. So we had the flight credits and a little while ago we re-booked them, got a hotel sorted and we leave in the morning and come back Monday afternoon.
I'm no Franz Klammer, more Franz Kafka (I wish), and haven't been skiing for eons so should be interesting. We are staying in Beaver Creek and it has been snowing steadily this last week, although saying that we've had a fair whallop of the fluffy stuff around here the last 24 hours.
Heavy snow in the resort has been forecast for tomorrow and Friday - one or two feet - god, I now have visions of us not getting there again.... Anyhow I should be able to get in a few lessons and some bunny slopes whilst my accomplice bolts around the black runs.
Throw in a massage, couple of beers and it should be a nice weekend. ¶ 22:38
