back to snowboard school today. We had a pommie instructor revising the basics, and put in a lot of time higher up the mountain. then spent the afternoon trying to do jumps - got some air and a few falls as well.

Another day on the slopes, confident enough to get down a black run, calves sore after riding down the carpark on the ski-out, about 2.4 k mainly on one edge is hard work.

Back up to sunshine - this time for a longer day

went for a swim in canmore pool. Only a 25m pool which felt pretty short compared to 50m. Went in the fast lane as it looked like neither of the two girls in there were swimming very quickly in there. After I got in one of them sped up a lot and went storming past as though I'd moved in on their turf. Afterwards wandered into the steamroom and mistook the girl in there for nicky, so may not be going back to that pool in a hurry.

Snowboarding at sunshine village (nr Banff). First time on the new board, was mainly on greens trying to remember how it all works. Plenty of stacks. Have logged estimated time actually riding and not sat on lifts, drinking hot chocolate etc
