Day 24 - Steamboat Springs


Day 24 – Easy day – breakfast, a movie, then finally out to the slopes!  I stayed with Gordy for quite a while, as he is still not feeling confident.  I then did a couple of runs on Preview before I summoned up my courage and went to the top of the lift!  Let me tell you I was scared “shitless”!  Somebody had told me I should head left, which I did.  Followed some people that seemed to know where they were going then, for some unknown reason, I ended up in a space where there was NO ONE!  I waited for a while, then made a decision to push off …. after all, I was up and the only choice was …. down.  Anyway, other skiers appeared a couple of minutes later and off I went.  It was great fun….though I still get very scared and have to remind myself what to do constantly.  Down to meet Gordy and after a couple of warming ales (wines) we were back in our room.  Another relaxing hour or so and then we head down to the bar again for “Happy Hour”.  This is great as every evening between 3.00 – 6.00pm all drinks are half price plus a selection of appetisers!  Bargain!  The quarter final between Colorado and San Diego was on tonight so very busy night and you always get talking to the locals so a good night!  Back in our room as we have to have an early night to be up early for our Gourmet Walking Tour in the morning!
