Yesterday it was quite warm and it even rained a little, but last night it froze and everything was slippery. The first few runs this morning were very difficult because of all the ice on the slopes and we took it slowly at first until the snow was a little less frozen. We took a break for water and a small snack and headed back to the slopes. By then, the runs that where in the sun were much more pleasant to go down.
Later we stopped for hot chocolate and continued on for a couple more hours on some fun runs before we had to go. On the last run, we went on one of the same slopes that we had taken yesterday, but today it was a little different. There is one small part that is extremely steep and it hadn't been groomed since yesterday so it was really bumpy and very icy. After a few tried curves, we decided it would be best to go straight down. I was super fast and really fun and we stopped at the bottom and went back to the house.
There weren't any spectacular falls today, but near the end Jeremy and James had both fallen and slid on their bottoms down the hill. There was one young teenager who seemed to be trying to show off for us and he skied right next to us, but managed to spend to much attention watching us and not where he was going. I'm not sure what he did, but all I know is that he lost a ski and both of his poles trying to impress one of us. Just a tip: don't try impressing another girl or boy like that, unless you really know what you're doing.
Love,
Ashley

I'm really enjoying skiing and I can't wait until tomorrow!
