Snowboarding in Sonora!!!!!!

Enjoying every minute in the snow!

This was definitely a once in a lifetime experience because not only was it the first time I tried snowboarding, but it was also the first time I’ve EVER seen real snow! I know, people’s reactions are always very surprised, but remember I come from a small town in South-Africa, it never snow there. 🙂 We stayed in Sonora, but snowboarded at Dodge Ridge. My friend is really good at this so he showed me what to do and after a few try-outs we went up to the mountain, I was kinda nervous because getting off from the lift onto the snow is not easy, I fell all the time, but as soon as we got off and started going down the mountain I actually stayed up and it was SO much fun!!! We went up and down all the high mountains and I fell a lot, but it’s such a different feeling, being on snow, sliding down the mountains, seeing the beautiful views, it’s great, makes you feel so free. We snowboarded for the full day on Saturday and I enjoyed it so much that we decided to go back for a half day on Sunday. I’m so grateful because it feels like I am doing more things in my time here than I have ever done in South-Africa. I am really having the time of my life! Having great people in my life makes it so much easier. A tip from my side – do something crazy, something that you think you can’t do, life is too short to stick to the usual, be different and enjoy every second of it…:)

So much fun!!!!
