Ski vacation!!!!

We are on our way home from an absolutely awesome vacation in the mountains of North Carolina. More precisely Sugar Mountain. We went there with three other families and we also brought our own babysitter to help with David while we skied. One of our friends’ daughter. She became good friends with some of the other girls on the trip and it all worked out perfectly. Our babysitter, Alex and I took turns watching David so we all got to ski and during the last day one of our friends took David so we could all ski together. It was a foggy rainy day so we were totally soaked when we got home but the snow was good. 

Driving up in a really full car… I’m surprised you can see out the back window! 😂


Day 1 - Cold and sunny. Perfect, if you ask me! Gabriel and Rafael needed a lot of hands on help so there are no videos from day one. 

Gabriel with his snowboard. He snowboarded a few hours in Sweden a few years ago. 


Marlee on skis. He has skied 3-4 times in his life. Naturally our most advanced child. :-)


Rafael with his skis. His first time on skis ever. 


Noah with his skis (he thought it was very cold). He has skied two times before. 


Beautiful nature!!


The green beginners slope. Alex is skiing with Rafael and Gabriel is sitting to the right of them.

Day 2 - Warmer weather and sun. Gabriel and Rafael showed great improvement. 


















Coming next.. into the fog/in i dimman…

  1. Sköna bilder på framför allt Gabriel. Han verkar att snabbt ha förstått grunderna i Snowboardåkning och kan kontrollera och styra sin åkning.
    Lilla Raffi har som de flesta nybörjarna ett läge att åka och det är rakt ner.
    Fina bilder och filmer. Tack
    Kram
