My First Ski Trip @ Sugarloaf
It was end of January, its cold but not that bad--- I kind of like snow. It’s been 2/3 weeks that we are planning to go for ski. Hunt the website to find nearest ski resort .I took advice from the experienced person
Minimum Requirement-----------
1) Pants (like track suit must be warm)
2) Gloves
3) Cap
4) Warm jacket
We start the journey at 12:00 noon –had our late breakfast (Coffee, bagel). The nearest resort was more then an hour drives. We thought it’s good if we go early so we can visit some places. It was a small city with lots of hill fully covers with snow.
We are fully loaded with 2 cars, but nobody knows the ski resort well. We go back and forth for few times. At last we found a resort at 2:30pm but they open at 6pm, we became hungry again ---had our launch (sub, chips, pie).

At 5:00 we went to the resort name ”SUGARLOAF”--- ---it was our first trip----so we rented the ski boot, blade and nail(cost $20). Each boot weight around 5lb and blade around 5 lb. So each lag we have weight around 10 lb ---

Our instructor helps us a lot ----he showed what to do ----how you will control balance---how to move left and right, to control your weight when you are falling down.
He took us to the beginner level -----where you have to hold a still rope----which will pull you to the top of the hill. the 1st fall---it was very bad---I fell upside down ---and snow went inside my jacket—then 2nd my lag twisted with those blade and 3rd –it was ok –I fell down half of the way—4th---and so on---it became better ----I got to know how to control the body how to move left right .We were there till 9:30. It was amazing.

After the ski-----We are so hungry that we can eat a whole cow . We don had any food cooked and none of us had energy to cook. We decided to have some snacks we had pizza,chicken wings,donair,pop,Alu Bazi (French Fry).
---We reached home at 11:30 pm .It was really a nice trip—which I will remember forever---specially they way I fell down, my leg twisted, up side down me. Only Allah knows how many times I fell down .The next few days my whole body was in pain----and some of us took pain killer.
