On this trip I came to acknowledge the cold hard fact that my skiing skills have completely deteriorated. I don't know what happened.
It's like rather than getting faster or better at skiing each time I go I get slower. I swear I would ski uphill if I could. In fact, my parallel turns pretty much consist of my turning my skis uphill as much as possible.
You can see Michael in my goggles in the picture above! I bought these at the ski shop and I really liked the rainbow reflection and the white rim. I felt like a real snow bunny, even if in my actions I was anything but. We were waiting for that one snowboarder to get out of my way but he was so slow.
Here are some other pictures I snapped while skiing or riding the lifts/gondolas:
Taking a break… perfect with the soft serve ice cream for which Hokkaido is famous.
I had the soft serve before I had the soba…this soba was paired with tasty wild vegetables at Boyo-So, a restaurant halfway up the slopes.
