Jerro 0 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I went skiing for the first time on Sunday - at last! My friends took me up to Mitsumata in Yuzawa, Niigata and I did my best impression of a new-born giraffe standing for the first time. Stopped the lift more than once after crashing out. I think I did pretty well though in the end and really enjoyed it, can't wait to go again. It was beautiful up there and warm too. Link to post Share on other sites
