Boarder-cross

In chronological order here is what I have been up to since my last post.

I have decided that I will not be pursuing my potential modelling career. No matter how much research I would do, it still seems like I wouldn't have enough information. Also, I don't really want to go and get photographed for who knows how many hours, I would rather use my time for more useful things.

Skiing at 2 alps yesterday was fantastic. It was probably the best day I have skiing in my short skiing career. The weather was perfect, it was a little chilly in the chair lift but the perfect temperature while skiing down hill. The snow was excellent in most places and I even got to ski in powder. It was awesome. Furthermore, I am now confident enough on my skis to gain (some) speed while going downhill, so I was feeling pro. That is until someone who was actually good went zooming by me. I was also encouraged by my more fearless friend to try the boarder-cross initiation run, so I was also able to check that off my list. I didn't really like it because there were a lots of bumps so you could do jumps. I am still terrified of become airborne because I know I would not be able to land a jump, so I kept having to break which made it less fun. I found a video on youtube of the boarder-cross route at 2 alps, so if you are interested in see what boarder-cross is click here. Even if you're not interested in boarder-cross, it's pretty cool because you get to see the same scenery that I do for a few minutes. Here is another video of the same run, but I would advise against watching this one if you get motion sickness, the boarders are going alot faster. Just to clarify, this is not the run that I went on, I went on a less steep version but it runs parallel to the run shown in the above videos.

Look forward to photos of 2 alps and info about the st laurent archeological museum and grenoble fab lab because this is all the time I have today.
