We went skiing!

This winter in Korea was not that bad. There wasn't that much snow or ice, and we could still go out as long as we brought our coats. Even so, I am so happy that spring has arrived! 봄이 마침내 왔습니다!
Just as winter was fading and spring was creeping up on us, we took advantage of the last possible opportunity to go skiing while we are in Korea. We went with a tour group on a day trip to Yongpyong Ski Resort.



Sorry that we didn't get any videos of us actually skiing, but we do not own an action camera and didn't want to risk dropping our phones or camera into the snow! In fact, the only times we filmed where when sitting on the lift or taking a rest.

We started with the bunny hill, and after getting the feel of it, we moved up to the intermediate slopes. Our crowning achievement was finishing a 5k slope called Rainbow Paradise! We took the gondola up to the top of the mountain, gripped our poles, and didn't look back! It took about 30 minutes to get all the way back to the bottom, but it was not very steep and the snow was fluffy. It was so fun, we went down a second time!

Napping on the 3 hour bus ride home was easy as pie, and our muscles were terribly sore the next day, but we were happy to spend time together enjoying the wind of winter and the sun of spring!
