So we got our ski gear (minus skis and poles) sent ahead to our hotel rooms so that we could try it all on before actually hitting the slopes. I was so excited! You know, it's a good thing it was snowing when we arrived in Sapporo - it snowed all day and night, and even that morning when we made it to Fu's Ski School. Because without that snow, it would have been impossible for us to enjoy skiing!
Well, the morning consisted of the kids learning how to stand, propel themselves forward, stop, turn, and so on. And so I just kind of went along with them, watching them and having fun tracking their progress. We went inside for lunch, a delicious curry, and then hit the slopes for real in the afternoon! Of course I didn't fall all day, though a lot of the kids did, and unfortunately one girl even twisted something pretty bad - she spent the rest of the trip being pushed around in a wheelchair.
The evening consisted of more awesome food, and chilling in our rooms. Well, the teachers "worked" but the students sure had fun! A great day overall! Next stop - Otaru!
