66 year old “brag post”… sorry, but proud of myself!
Skiing in Austria this week as well as grandbaby babysitting duties. So not the usual 4-5 hours every day, but 2-3 hours here and there.
What about the bragging then? Well, my son is a level 2 ski instructor and he gave me some very good advice, but what’s more he encouraged me to go down 4 (!) black slopes. A first for me, never ventured on those before. In Europe the slopes are graded: blue - beginner, red - intermediate and black - advanced…
Not bad for a 66 year old who only learned to ski in her fifties. I’m allowed to be proud, right?!
Photo: me at the bottom of the black slope. The top part was the really steep bit, lower down on that slope it was just sweeping wide bliss!
