ski!

So, Switzerland is not only about Chocolate or Swiss Army knife...or the CERN as we might have seen in one of the best series ever: the Big Bang Theory.

THis country is also about skiing! People around here have a large variety of ski courts and prices. So they really utilize it!

As it is closer to us, we tried the French Mont Jura Ski resort! My advanced friends said it is for beginners so we gave it a try and it was amazing!

The day starts early, even on Sunday, what is a miracle because Krisz hates to get up early. We arrive there and at 9h the parking lot is already full! We run to rent the pack for me. I didn't think ski laces would be so heavy, it is bad to carry up an down, who said you will never sweat in minus 5.

So I try my first steps with the boots which are not very easy because it hurts the feet if not well attached. And then after the laces are on, it is so cool...we all beginners look like a worm with long legs trying to move without success! It is ridiculous and even more after we find a not very inclined area. And down we go, it is a very good sensation, even if a 6 year-old boy just passed by you at 60km/h.

And so you go with your first movements, trying to slide, to climb, not to fall...
After all, this is a good fun that requires a good muscle practice because now the used muscles are all complaining!

See you around the court!
