I'm not three but I can ski!

We have seen the hottest days of the year here in England, but in California its business as usual, sun on the beach and snow in the mountains. It may be mid April but if you have skies and can get to Tahoe, then I suggest you do!
Yesterday, Phoebe skied for the first time. She is only 2 3/4 but in this game it would seem that all you need is confidence. She took the chair lift to the top of her run escorted by Andy, who is not only her grandfather but also the director the Sugar Bowl ski patrol in Tahoe. She couldn’t have been in safer hands. Once at the top she skied in between his skies and apparently shouting "faster, faster".

I of course am in England, a place that stands still when we get snow and miles away from my daughter’s first experience on skies :( I am told that my mother-in-law filmed this debut, although Cleia did mention something about a technical hitch... watch this space.
