Fatty is back from his week-long alpine skiing trip. I am discovering that when I am on vacation, all I really like to do is sleep. I will start taking more vacations at home. It is a lot cheaper. Anyway, this trip was cool. I did not do a lot of skiing, but there was sure a lot of partying. My school shuts down for a week because of this trip. About 650 students go. We went to a resort on the France-Swiss border to a resort called Avoriaz. It was right in the Alps. I can't say I did alpine skiing, but the baby slopes are in the alps right? The Fatty highlight was when I ventured off the baby slopes and found I still needed to learn how to stop and turn. I quickly found out that skiing down the slope was not in my abilities. I took off my skis and hiked down, but ended up lost because I just headed down the mountain instead of looking at my map (Oh I didn't have one). Anyway, I walked all the way down the mountain and had to take two buses and a cable car back to the resort. Talk about off-piste! That four hour run didn't do too much for my love of skiing.
