The Final Countdown!

I just realized that I only have ten days left! Time flies when you are having fun!

The last few days in Switzerland were amazing! The snow stayed great and I mastered the 180 and accidentally did a 360 off of a small jump. Last night we went to a club, so I am a bit tired. Right now I am on a bus to Milan where I will catch a bus or train to Florence.

I am excited to see more of Italy and hope to do a bike tour through the Chianti region in the next couple of days. After Florence I head to Venice and then back to Spain for my last five days.

I can't believe this adventure is coming to an end, but I am excited to come home!

Best day of snowboarding in my entire life!!!

Unlimited powder, no lines, fresh snow = Best day ever!!!!

Corviglia Day 2!

This morning we woke up at 6:30 so we could be the first people on the slopes. It snowed about 4 or 5 inches last night, so there was powder everywhere! But, when we got to the top, it was so snowy and windy that you couldn't see two feet in front of you. Luiggi stayed at the lodge while I went down the mountain to check and see if the conditions were ok for his level of expertise. It was, so we snowboarded for a couple of hours and now we are eating.

The sun is now shining and I am ready to hit the powdery slopes again!

A day in the Swiss Alps!

I had so much fun today! Corviglia, the resort we snowboarded at, was fun, huge, amazing, breath-taking, and overall one of the best places I have ever snowboarded at!

Again, I feel so lucky! Tonight we are having lasagna and then we are at it again tomorrow!

Love and miss you all!

Corviglia!

I'm snowboarding the Alps right now at a resort called Corviglia!!! It is incredible :)

Crisis Averted!

So I didn't miss the plane after all! My cab got there about 5 minutes after it was supposed to have departed so I ran immediately to the front of the check-in line and asked if it had left. She said yes and then paused for a second and ran to the gate. She then ran back and told me to go get my ticket stamped and to run to the plane.

After flying through the airport, I ran onto the runway and ran into the plane - only to hear the loudspeaker saying that we would be arriving late "due to late passengers". :) Whoops!

Anyways, I landed safely in Milan to find Luiggi and our yellow Fiat waiting. We drove to St. Moritz, Switzerland (with me getting sick twice along the way). I guess small car and windy mountain roads = car sickness!

Upon arrival we rented our gear and snowboarded the alps! It was incredible! So, for the next 5 days, I will be in the Alps in my friends cabin enjoying life!!!!

Life is good!

Goodbye Airplane I Just Missed!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
