Snow means a lot of SHOVELING to our super man😅;
Snow means TOUGHER walking between buildings in campus to our big boy 😎;
To me, Snow means sitting beside the fireplace, warm and ROMANTIC 😑;
To our little boy, Snow means SKIING😀!
Yeah! Let’s go! Go skiing! Lots of fun!
It has been the 7th year for our family’s skiing trip, so nothing new. Except added a new ski and a snowboard, all other equipments remain the same. Our packing list even has been being a great general file for years. So I can start my packing at any time. But where to ski this year? I think this is the hardest part for this trip.
In these 7 years, we had 3 years Blue Mount season pass, skied tens of times there;
We skied 9 days at Big White in BC, enjoyed the wonderful weather with great snow condition.
We skied 9 days in Colorado, experienced the world famous skiing resorts.
We skied 9 days in North of Vermont last year. Felt a lifetime crystal Christmas in US!
Our 2 big guys skied 9 days in Salt Lake City in US, immensely enjoyed skiing fun.
In addition,we had quite few 4 days trips in New York State; South of Vermont in US; Tremblant, Mont Sainte-Anne and Le Massif in Quebec.
Basically we almost skied all the well known ski mountains in North America. Some of the places we even skied more than twice. So if we still want to leave our dream resort Whistler in the future, then we have to pick some resorts that we have visited.
Even though Tremblant will be the 3rd time for our 2 big guys to visit, however it will be the first time for our little skier. In order to benefit his Grade 4 & 5 Canada ski pass, he definitely doesn’t want to miss this famous mountain which contains the most challenging trail in Canada.
Internet wastes lots of people’s precious time, however it also do the powerful help to our life. All our 7 nights hotel and 5 resorts lift tickets booking can be done in one afternoon or even shorter in few minutes if you have pretty strong financial situation, so you don’t need to search the location vs. price, and you won’t mind to buy all the life tickets at its regular price either. Unfortunately our manager has to do some research work.
As a skiing fan, our manager has some skiing friends in different cities, with their help, we got promotion price at some of the resorts tickets. It makes us happy before the trip starts. 😊
The next is to wait for snow coming.⛄️
Interesting Sidelights
There are quite few different types of ski for various ski purpose, like for alpine ski, mogul and powder ski.
Our manager always uses alpine & mogul ski for powder skiing. This year he decided to add one powder ski which is esteemed the coolest ski by the skiing fans. According to them, you will be happy only by looking at the ski even if not using it😁. So after getting the shipment from US, the ski was kept in our living room instead of garage, and he really looking at them adoringly everyday.
Hey buddy, leave the ski alone, it’s time for dinner, 😏
