Don't break anything..

My cousin broke her arm..

My sister went about 10 years ago and broke her leg.

Are we just one unlucky family or is skiing seroiusly dangerous?
I like life.

It gives me something to do.

Unlucky, or just uncoordinated? :lol:

Have a great time, Bud. Skiing has never appealed to me. Too damn cold. Perhaps I should give it a try sometime. :wink:

Wouldn't mind the apres-ski, though. Can you have that without having to do the skiing first? :)
Likes the warm feeling but is tired of all the dehydration.

Well my far better half tells me you can. There is a placein St. Anton called the Mooserwirt. From about 3.30 til 7/8 it is heaving. DJ gets the place hopping....dancing on chairs and tables in ski boots....NOW THAT'S DANGEROUS :shock:

I never really wanted to go skiing either but Mrs. B was mad to go so.......that was 4 years ago and we are going twice this year. I love it and she is kinda "been there, done that, next".....Women :roll:

Have been in St Anton many times, it´s a good party town. :D

Now i havn´t been there for last 10 years but it´s party til late and you´ll find party everywhere :wink:

I´m going for one week skiing next week in the Swedish mountains with the whole family, even my sister from London is coming home, Great fun.

And about injurys, i have been skiing since i was 3 years old and have never got injured in the slopes, but i have been in the "After Ski" :lol: 8)

Hope you´ll have a great time in Austria Bud and hope you have better luck with the wether than i hade 3 weeks ago when i was in Badgastein, It was raining all the time and wery little snow. :evil: But the party was good :twisted:

Can't say I've been hurt myself .......yet

It's been snowing there for a few days now so it should be ok. Once it does'nt get to warm it should be just perfect for next week.

Just returned from a four-day-trip to Venice and Verona. It was really warm, say about 15° C.

Yesterday we nearly spent the whole day just driving around on vaporetti in Venice, and even today the bathroom seems to sway ...

It's been too cold here in NY. Perhaps a trip down south to Georgia for a while, where it's mild.
