Skiing in Slovakia for Iza's Birthday

For Iza's birthday we went skiing in the mountains in Slovakia.  I was so excited and we were blown away by the great views.  The first morning was great we went to the top and explored several different runs.  Then we stopped for a late lunch break and after lunch decided to go back up to the top.   

Me at the top of the mountain.  WE MADE IT!!



Our hotel.
Can you see Kayla and me in Kat's goggles?


Little did we know that it was far from clear at the top.  We could hardly see a few feet ahead.  It was a bit unnerving but we slowly made our way back to the bottom and decided to call it a day.  In this picture Kayla is right ahead of me, then Kat and Iza was leading the way.  We guided by sound instead of site. But we all made it safe and sound.


On day two we were off again.  We checked out several other runs and enjoyed the sunshine.  In the afternoon we tried out the other side of the mountain where it is less marked and not groomed.
  
Morning of day two.  They are ready for another fun day.

Nice view in the background.

The whole day two crew.

To the other side!!





I could have stood up here and looked at the mountains all day!

We "American Potatoes" on the menu all weekend and had to try them.  I guess these are American Potatoes.

Last Run :(

Goodbye Mountains

A castle/fort that we saw on the drive back to Poland.
It was such a great weekend.  We might not have gotten much skiing in this winter but the skiing we did do was quality!!!
