On 29th of December we went skiing with my friends.We went to Ax-les-Thermes, one of the major ski stations . We went by train to Ax-les-Thermes. Finally we reached Ax-les-Thermes train station. From there we went by bus to the real ski station. Up we go in the cable car. Oh it's warmer than I thought! We rented our ski sets and off we go skiing!!! I slowly learned skiing but I didn't become an expert (that's obvious for the first timer!) but I was extremely happy and proud to have skied quite well!
It is 5:00pm now. Now there was another cable car which took us even higher from the base station, and we decided to go up. We bought our tickets and up we went. We reached it at last, but before we reached it we got stuck as the power of the cable cars went off and down below it was so deep and scary. I... it's very cold it is -10 and I could not bear it any more, so we quickly came down.
Oh no, it is 6:00pm and our train is at 6:20pm.GOSH!!! Only 20 minutes to catch the same! We again quickly came down the cable car and all of us ran for the train. We reached it on time, the others were waiting for us. We caught our train and left.
Bye bye! See you snow the next time!!
(The people who were waiting were the people who's children felt cold and had to leave back early.)
Here are couple of the pics captured:
