This was Jordana's first day of skiing up at Crystal Mt. over Christmas break. She had a great time after she figured out what turning was for. After having only one lesson, I coerced her to ride up the big person's chair to mid-mountain and take a run with me. Unbeknownst to me, her instructor had never conveyed to her the real purpose of turning, she later told me she thought it was just to look cool. So as we started the run, she bolted straight down the slope, wedging the whole way but gaining more and more speed while I chased after her screaming "Turn! Turn!" until finally she bit the dust. It was really quite a site to see! She was ok though, with only her ego a little bruised thanks to the man who stopped to laugh at her expense. In the end, she was quite impressive after only two days of skiing and, most importantly, says she loved it! (boy was I relieved)
She's riding the conveyor belt here, the modern version of the rope tow. As you can see, they don't give you poles at first. (And I know the photo's sideways but I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to permanently rotate it. Any advice from you professional bloggers?)

You've got to get yourself an editing program. Like photoshop, corel or irfanview. I enjoy the latter. It's free. Rotate, save, then upload.
Thanks for posting some pics of Jordana skiing. She looks so cute! I think she is going to be a professional,if I may say so myself.
