It was so nice to get back onto skis on Monday! Two chaperones couldn’t make the Grade 10 ski trip and I was able to replace them. Our school’s adventure program has a “snow” strand. It is our goal to have all students learn to ski. Conditions were perfect with soft, dry snow, sunny skis and cool, but not cold temperatures. It was rewarding to give advice and help the students gain confidence on the slopes. We have loved the Amirsoy Ski Resort over the past seven years in Tashkent. I continue to soak up the winter experiences. My big takeaway from the day is drier snow is much better than icy snow and makes it easier and safer to make turns
We had a quiet Sunday without Oliver with us. I had a full day of exercise, including yoga in the morning, a long walk with Obi around midday and then a bike ride along the canal in the afternoon.
Oliver got stuck in Newark, New Jersey, for two days because of the big storm. This was the photo he sent as he landed. He is now back at school!
