Ouch. Unsurprisingly the slowest on record. I was in a bad way from about 12 km and got worse from there. Barely walking by the end, but I made it.

Aoife was in charge today. Tried to take her out of Smiggins but she was not sure so we stayed put. Lots of fun but getting warm.

Aoife wanted to go back to the ski school so Eoin and I had time for even more exploring today. Only slightly further than yesterday but we were both more confident and had more fun. Amazingly warm.
Afterwards we did quite a bit more exploring of Smiggins with Aoife leading the way. She has no fear and as a result Eoin did his first blue slope.

We had intended to learn to cross country ski today, but couldn't get a lesson and worked out we could explore from village to village for the day while Aoife went to ski school. So, we stuck with the downhill skis and I had a ball. Eoin was a bit miserable to begin with but got better. I really loved the trails through the trees and the scenery was amazing, clear blue skis as far as you could see!
Arrived back early to rescue Aoife and were sent away as she was having too much fun. When she'd finished for the day she was insistent that we take her up the chairlift. I agreed against my better judgement and she was fine. We did a few trips before the lift shut.

Ski 1:00:00 [3]
First time skiiing for 22 years. Quite cautious to begin with but no major problems. Had my only fall of the 4 days today, bit off a bit more than I was ready for! I mastered that slope the next day. We took it very easy and did not try anything difficult.
