Sledding

Yesterday, we went sledding. We had a guide who make sure we are equipped with the snow boots and then drove us up winding and narrow single lane mountain road. It is quite scary as the mountain is quite steep. At regular intervals, there is a slightly wider area for cars to pass each other. Otherwise only one car can go at any time, up or down. We stopped and park at a cable car station and took the cable car to a much higher point. There is a resturant right at the other station. A couple that came with us climbed up higher. They had to wear snow shoes. We tobbogan down to back to the cable station below.
It is our first experience toboganning as a family. The path is narrow and snow thick. It took about 45 mins to get down. We are going slow to get used to the path and learning to control our sled as well. B3 was with me and he keep asking me to go faster. Mummy take a bit of time the first time down to get used to sledding. It was fun.
This morning is payback time! My muscles are all sore as we are using those we hardly ever use.
I highly recommend toboganning to everyone especially family. This is great family bonding experience.
