Saturday 12th March

We went skiing in Michigan on this day! It was so much fun! It was my first time skiing on real snow. I have only done dry slope skiing before when i was a lot younger. The first couple of times this day i took ages to get the hang of it, i couldn't stay up very well and kept falling over! I started off with the bunny slope, which has a rope to pull you up. I had a break for a while and got back on the horse :) After a while, I moved up on the bigger slope as I was getting better and better :) I was very very nervous. We all then went onto the chair lift up to the top of the hill. Emily went on her own chair and Terry and I went on one together. Terry was practically holding my hand as I was so scared! Emily told the man at the top to slow the lift down so I could manage to get off without falling! Ha! The first time I went down, I fell twice and went down on my bottom! The second time, I fell once and skied all the way down without falling, and zoomed past Emily! I was so happy! I really enjoyed it from there on :) Emily and Terry were great at the skiing. Terry went on one of the really big hills, and lost one of his skis! Somehow He managed to walk back and get it! On the way home we went to a Christian restaurant and shop and had something small to eat.
