Baby Vo’s First Ski Trip

Over the long weekend, Steve and I went up to Mammoth with friends for a ski vacation.  Sadly, the conditions were not ideal.  (Almost all of the snow was man-made and it was super windy on the lifts.  They even closed early on Sunday due to the high winds.)  Nevertheless, we had a FANTASTIC time!!  We woke up early on Saturday morning to hit the slopes and we stayed out all day…stopping only for lunch and hot chocolate.  It felt amazing to be back on my skis even though I was trying to be super careful.  Everyone should be relieved to know that I didn’t fall (because that’s not what I do) or pummel my stomach in any way.

Besides skiing, we also enjoyed hanging out with our friends in Mammoth.  The village is super cute, but what was even more awesome was our cabin.  Our friends found a great condo with a fireplace, plenty of lounging space, a full kitchen, and in the perfect location for our early morning walks to the slopes.  (Technically, the place was ski-in-ski-out, but without any real snow, we had to walk to and from the lifts.  No complaining!  We were still on our skis earlier than most people.)  It truly felt like a vacation.  I am only guessing here, but I think Baby Vo might already be addicted to skiing.
