Sven is learning to ski!


This year Sven said he wanted to learn to ski, so we signed him up for some lessons. Here he is at Summit West at Snoqualmie right before his first lesson.

The snow was pretty wet, as its been unusually warm, but I think that made it easier for him to get around on the skis. Not so great for skiing though. By the end of the lesson Sven could turn and stop. Next week, Sven might be ready for the lift.

Before Sven's final lesson, he started saying he didn't want to ski anymore. I finally convinced him to go one more time, and I promised I would ski with him. It turns out the problem was getting on and off the lift! He is too short to just sit down on the lift when it arrives -- he needs to jump up at just the right moment, or the chair starts to leave with Sven dangling off the front! No wonder he didn't like it.
