Skiing in Tahoe - David Does It Again

David Goes Skiing.  Is 5 years of age too young to ski?  Apparently not.  His helmet goes on and this man is ready to go.


At this age there is no fear.  Of course, he is already pretty close to the ground so the risk does not seem as great to them.


David progressed from Galaxy Level to Mid-Mountain in one day.  What is going on here?


He even went on the these lifts (with his instructor).


We all went up this one - so mom and dad get some points right?


We even went to the top (at least for lunch).


No worries.  Mom and dad skied while David was hard at work.  Mom made it to level 3 and dad barely made it to level 2 (same as David and remember he is only 5).  This could be a bit rough on the ego.  But I did snowplow enough to slow down, turn right, and turn left.  All of those on purpose.  I also did a fast 180 turn and stop with skis parallel.  But that was not really on purpose.  It was the only way I knew how to stop.  It looked good.  The instructor was not too crazy about it.

In any case, no broken bones, no frozen toes, and David, mom, and dad had a great time in the snow.
