We had two days at there and had a lot of fun.
When I came back to home, all of my body was so sore!
I hope I can go ski again!

Ski school day4

Today it was final day of ski school.

Unfortunately Minami caught a cold and she could not go skiing, I took Haruki only today.

There were lot of powder snow on the slope, so I and Haruki had super excellent skiing today!

Haruki reached level 3 or 4 in his skill.

I had small pain in my leg especially hamstring because of two straight days running.

Anyway today it was one of the best day of my visiting.

After that, Haruki and Minami got Pizza prize as a reading reward.

We had Pizza party in dinner, Minami was getting better her cold, and she was able to eat it.

Thank you for good Pizza, Haruki & Minami!

Ski school day3

Today, I took my kids to Bogus for ski school with Po.

While their school, I and Po were enjoying, it was fine and the snow was still not so bad, just little more icy than last week.

Some trouble happened, my day bag was stolen by the chair!

Lift guy stopped and got back from him!

This was 3rd time of school, so they had improved their ski skill very much.

Ski coach also praised them, I became easy to go to slope with them.

After skiing, we had lunch on Po's trunk sheet!

Onigiri, rice bowl was very tasty especially at snow park.

Ski school day2

Today it was ski school 2nd day for Haruki and Minami.

It was colder than yesterday, but they were still with the motivation for skiing.

We arrive Bogus at 9 o'clock, so took the lift 2nd time prior to the class.

While there lesson I took lift several times, may be 7 times over, my hamstring began to cry, so I took a rest until there class was done.But after class they still wanted to ski so I went together just one time.

After that they came back to home, they started their homework and studied Japanese, especially "Kanji" for about two hours.

I allowed to play with Nintendo Wii because of finish studying so hard.

Otomi played peek-a-boo herself near side of her brother and sister was doing game.

She looked happy.

We had happy Sunday!

Busy Saturday

Today it was the ski school day for Haruki and Minami at Bogus.

Po joined our ski trip and he also drove his car to Bogus.

Few days ago we had some snow, so there was nice snow on the slope, awesome!

Haruki and Minami was separate class.

When they had class, we enjoyed skiing!

They were just second time to ski, but after lesson both of them could go up by lift and ski down by themselves. It was great progress only one hour!

They want to more skiing, so after lunch 2 more lift.

After that we went to BSU, to receive some paper from Japan consul general.

Today they came from Portland to organized special operation of them.

In dinner, we went to Texas road house with Po and his wife, that's a good steak house, reasonable and tasty, however almost every weekend there were lots of people, tonight also very crowded, we were waiting for about an hour!

Taste very good!

Anyway ski school will be continued

Good luck Haruki and Minami tomorrow!

Tamarack

Today I went to Tamarack resort for skiing just only me and with my friends.

It takes about two hours from my home to there.

The resort hotel is still under construction......There are no money to finish...

Ski resort is very nice and snow condition is very good.

We can see the nice view from top of mountain.

I went to there just only me without my family, it gave me too much skiing time and bad low back pain.............

Bogus

I went to Bogus to ski using my 2 hours private time.

Last Sunday I went to there first time with my family.

I had no time to ski well, I could ride lift only 2 times...

Today I could try 5!!

So I could revenge a defeat!?

But now my hamstring muscles are starting to cry............

Bogus debut!

We family went to Bogus basin mountain to play skiing.

Haruki was 2nd time, Minami was 1st time to do.

They were looking forward to ski debut!

Haruki and Minami tried hard at first, bat their globe was not good.

They were perished with cold.

But they want to come again, so we are going to do next week!

Ski season!

I would like to go to ski with my two older kids.

So today we went to BOGUS Basin office and got their tickets.

Also we applied kid's ski school. January and February it was full already, so we took middle of March.

And we were worry about ski gears. We should buy or lease?

We decided to lease at sports shop, the cost was $99 but brand new! and return date is April 15th.

Anyway we start to enjoy skiing, and we have a plan to go to Bogus next Sunday.
