We found a super sledding hill in Morningside Park last week--beautiful long run surrounded by trees and kind of undiscovered--a rare thing in the city. This was from the big snow day last Tuesday, with our old neighbor Belen.
Here's Simon on the deck of the ski lodge at Belleayre. He liked watching Maya and Jonah while they were getting started on the rope tow. When they ventured up the big chairlift he took a nap in the crowded, chaotic lodge with his Papa. By the way, Belleayre isn't going to win any fantastic ski resort awards any time soon, but it was a great place to take beginners.
Jonah, with his first ever ski lift ticket on his jacket.
Maya, learning the fine art of how to carry skiis and poles while walking in ski boots.
Maya and Jonah on the chair lift. They did great! All that ice skating has helped their skiing skills, I think--by the end of the day they were cruising down the easy hills doing lots of wedge turns. They had a lot of fun. Between swimming in the hotel pool, skiing and sledding at a friend's house, they were tired little puppies. It was a nice weekend away.
