I'm so happy to be back in Juneau. Alaska is simply perfect. I don't have too much I'd like to share. I've been doing a bit of skiing. I'm currently in my Avalanche Fundamentals class, and so far it has been great. Today we buried beacons in the snow and practiced finding them, "rescue missions", it also involved a little backcountry skiing, which was definitely less of a fail that Wednesday, so I had a lot of fun. I have class tomorrow and I think we will focus more on the mechanics of snow. With the holiday on Monday I plan on hitting Eaglecrest, which should be great. :) Though, I'm starting to get a beer gut, so either the skiing isn't helping or I need to drink less when skiing. :(
I heard that Anna's sister enjoys reading my blog, so I'd just like to say thank you for reading! Anna truly is a great friend, I was just looking through my photos of last semester and Anna and I are always together! (and we're drinking in most of the photos as well :P ) I'd also like to thank you for the schnapps that you will be sending with your brother, I'm sure we will enjoy it immensely on our road trip from Anchorage to Fairbanks! I hope that this friendship that I have with Anna continues long after we have both returned to our respective homes, she's a very valuable friend.
Finally, here are a few photos from skiing on Friday, enjoy!
