Happy 9th Anniversary!

Wednesday, December 19, 2007 - Happy Anniversary!

We woke up this morning to get ready for class, again, but started with breakfast at the hotel. Then we headed down toward the slopes but stopped in first at a shop to buy hand and foot warmers. We then got to class but then Greg realized he had lost his ski pass, so he had to trek off for a replacement. He finally found his original one in his pocket.

Today was not a good day for snowboarding, at least for me. We moved to another slope in which I fell off the lift at least 5 times, before I finally gave up on class. I was so frustrated and upset that I had to give up on class about 1 1/2 hours early. Since it was our anniversary Greg left class early as well.

We decided to have a little fun and unwind so we headed up the sky buckets to Hannig Mountain where we did a 6 KM (3.728 miles) tobaggon down the mountain. It was so much fun and very fast, but not like what we had expected. It was really on the side of the mountain, you could fall down the side if you went to far over. We did have a blast.

We then went to Restaurant Tenne and had clear broth soup with croutons and some cheese fondue with our beer and wine. It was excellent.

We headed back to the hot tub then a full body massage, that was much needed. After I (Tami) finished my massage I headed back to the room to get ready for dinner while Greg enjoyed his massage. Once he was done he got ready for dinner. We had to be at dinner at 6:30 because we had plans later that night. So, after dinner we went for a torch light walk through the forest, it was great. We each got to carry our own torch. We stopped ib the middle of our 1 hr 45 min walk to enjoy some local wine and fairy tales. After that it was back to the hotel for some shut eye and to get ready for the next day of class.
