Well today I woke up and started my first lesson of snowboarding. After arriving yesterday my mom told me that I could take lessons and she would buy it as my birth day present. (I could not believe I heard that.) So I decided to take the opportunity of learning how to snow board. I thought to my self that it would be easy. ………boy was I ever wrong…..

Good Morning Indeed

Got up ate, had a cup of coffee. Looked out side and was absolutely dumb struck by the beautiful site. I could not believe that I was learning how to snow board today in a place like this. It was all just too amazing….then Got over it. The next thing I did was get dressed and put on my ski suit. Started to walk on over to the slope where we were slated to start our lesson. While walking it started to lightly snow…this was a good sign for me. Meet the ski instructor and then went off to start our lesson.

Lesson one

Snow boarding can be like skateboarding & surfing all mixed all in to one. You use your front leg a lot when needing to scoot from one side slope to the other. Next you have to smile a lot according to the instructor. He says it’s for health, personally I think he is trying to get into one of the girls pants that with us. So, on we learned all day long by trying…falling, trying again and then fell some more. By the time the day was over we were so sore and tired that I needed desperately to go have a beer. I thought to my self today was the first day that I go to enjoy my first E.U Beer. WOW WOW WOW. It tasted wonderful.. Like heaven had cracked its gates open just for me. Well I think its time to go home eat and hit the rack these lessons are supposed to last up to 3 days long.

Wow, liked being sucked in through a worm hole I totally lost a day while in transit. It was Saturday afternoon, around, 3pm in the E.U by the time I landed. While moving from the airport to my mom’s house I felt like I was in a surreal area of my life. The free way or (auto ban) seemed a lot faster then I had originally remembered it. (If you ever wanted to have a car and truly test its potential, that piece of road is the place to do it.) So where to start for the day?

Well I got my moms home and went to bed right away. Around 3:30 am I jumped out of bed as if waking from a dream……only it was not any dream that was for sure. When I looked out side I could see that it was snowing. “WOW”….I thought to my self. I have not seen a snow covered village since I was a little kid. So I started to explore my mom’s house. Holly crap I was totally surprised that my mom’s kitchen came off looking like an Ikea catalog picture. So after sitting around and looking for a while my brother and I started to pack for our trip into Austria.

The Trip that my mom had booked to Austria was really cool. We drove on the autobahn from Frankfurt, Germany to Kirchdorf, Austria. The only scary part was the snow on the road. When we arrived at the Hotel we could not believe how beautiful this place was. It was as if we had entered Narnia when the snow queen ruled.
