He skis!

We had a week of mostly sunshine down in the Swiss Alps skiing, tubing, swimming, and eating lots of chocolate! Noah attended 2 days of ski school for kids ages 3-5. He's second from the left, below.
Day 1 he's a bit shy but it doesn't stop him from going down the slope at full speed.



Press 'play' above to watch Noah's 1st ever trip down the slope. He was supposed to be waiting his turn to go down with the teacher but he didn't wait and just went on his own.







Day 2 he gets even better!

Press 'play' above to watch progress on Day 2.

Noah puts Mark to work pulling him down the slope in a tube on his skis.

- but going back up on the tow rope.

Press 'play' to watch the trip down.


Noah finds a pirate ship his favorite thing to play in at a huge indoor water park.



Our town has a giant 10-run tobogganing park.




Press 'play' to watch Noah's fast run down. Too bad you can't see the giant grin he has from ear to ear all the way down.

And what fun is a vacation without a breakdown, tow, and overnight stay waiting for car parts??
:)

After this vacation, I'm wondering if we are we turning our kid into a thrill seeker?
