Snowboarding

This weekend i was so stoked!  I got to go snowboarding.  If the weather is cold, i should be able to go snowboarding.  But most of the time here in Ulsan, its just plain cold and never snows, and if it snows it doesn't snow enough, nor does it stick.  So i finally got to go to a mini mountain about an hour away.  I went with a handful of South Africans and two other Americans.  No one had ever snowboarded or skied before, so i was the only one somewhat prepared.  Most of them did really well and were really excited by their new found passion.  I taught one girl how to snowboard and she picked it up pretty quickly.

I'm so happy!

(notice that there is no snow anywhere else)

I love their choice of snowboard gear.  Im a little jealous i don't have any.  I almost wanted to make some new friends.

Yup, im a orange cone.

The place we went was super small, but was just what the doctor ordered.  It was enough to get by.  It was the smallest "resort" I've ever been to and ever seen, but it was still fun to play around for a half day.  I can't wait for real snow and real runs.  California is so good at spoiling me.  ;)
