''Come on guys. It is time for your lesson,'' Mum says.
We all group together and go up the first chairlift to Park lane and it is there that we meet our instructor Kyle. In our group there's me, Amber, Brooke, Charlotte, Hannah and another school who had been skiing all week. Kyle tries to get us to do parallel turns the whole lesson. After about ten turns each going down, it was time for the ultimate challenge ... to go down the Giant and Bone yard; one of the top climbs on the mountain.We race down narrowly avoiding a couple of collisions with some dare devils who don't look where they are going. Kyle yells at them.
We go back down to Park lane and Kyle announces that our lesson is finished. We say thank you and get going. But it's not long before I'm back up, this time at the top of the mountain and ready to ski down Vertigo. Suddenly I'm speeding down too fast to steer, going and going until I fall over and I'm afraid to say ... that happened a lot. Anyway as I whizzed down the powdery white snow, I gazed at the magical view spread out like a picture on a piece of paper ... until... smash I thud into the snow losing both my skis and both my poles. I hop up and try to get a ski on but it doesn't work. I try and try and try, getting awfully frustrated, until about ten minutes later when I get my first ski on. Now I have the challenge of getting the second one on. Then a lady comes and helps me and I finally get it on and am able to zoom to the bottom, my ski tips skimming the white snow.
What a wonderful day.
