Park City

Well, we finally did it (over a month ago)...we left Ben with my mom and went on a vacation alone. Park City was wonderful. We spent three days on the slopes and aside from some sore shins, we had an excellent time. We started the trip with refresher ski lessons and someone (me :-) got bumped up to the more advanced class...and I finally comfortably went on a blue. (done bragging)

By the third day Mark's feet were so sore and we noticed how comfy the snowboarding shoes looked...so we decided to ditch the ski boots and learn to snowboard...I have new respect for snowboarders. Snowbaording is MUCH harder that I thought, but fun. I think we will do it again.

We also spent some much needed time at the base of the mountain enjoying live music, beer and way way too much food. We ate at three wonderful restaurants...Zoom, Whaso and Easy Street. I HIGHLY recommend all of them, especially Zoom. Maybe one day we will come back there for Sundance...yeah right.

We CANNOT wait to bring Ben here to ski. We asked a few instructors and they all said we should wait until he is at least 3.5 years old...so so excited to see him zooming down the mountain with all the other little ones. They were very good.

Here are a few pics.
