First Time Sledding

Finally, my friend and I made it to Tahoe for sledding after a few times postpone due to unexpected circumstances and rain. It was 2 hour drive from my friend's place, Vacaville to Mountain Adventure, the place where we sled.

The sledding boards borrowed from Jasmin's friend. We were all geared up and ready for sledding!

The weather was surprisingly good - sunny and cooling, though it was reported partly cloudy and possible shower on weather forecast. First attempt to sled down the hill, I was quite scared but looking around me, the kids (even the toddlers!) seemed to enjoy very much in the sport. Shame to say "I'm scared"! The moment the sled brought me down the hill, I was thrilled by the momentum and of course, I screamed (even though it's not as scary as roller coaster). One word, fun! But...the hardest and most tiring part was carrying the sled up the hill because every step on the snow was triple time of exertion lifting up your leg! Good workout though!

No pain no gain but it all pays off for the thrilled moment of sledding down the hill.

After a while of sledding alone, my friend and I decided to sled together on one board. Whoo...it was even more fun and exciting! We screamed like two crazy women entertaining themselves very much!



We really enjoyed ourselves repeating the same thing up and down the hill until the weather started to change....dark cloud slowly came by to say hello. Of course, I wouldn't just call it a day without making a snowman myself! Before it started to pour, we quickly dug out the snow and made our very first snowman!!


Our snowman with Jackie Chan's nose!

Indeed, it was such a wonderful day with new experience on the snow. Thank you Jasmin for keeping me in company and all the fun moments!
