What saves you!

We have had an awesome camp so far. The main focus was to get lots of runs under our belt. Test out your endurance and just ski. No matter how hard you work all summer strengthening, there is nothing like skiing.

So, now that we have our ski legs, I'm ready to go home. he he I have had fun on this boat but I'm ready for something new. I am holding it together better than I have in the past. It helps to have great teammates and great internet service. But after two weeks in the same place, the food and everything gets old.

What saved me for these last few days here was an amazing afternoon shred session with Sarah. We went out to take pictures and breathe in the love of our lives and just smile. We love to ski; there is nothing else like it and we are so lucky to be able to do it for fun! Some good pool sessions and very nice cooks have also helped me out. I dug up the last remaining GF tortillas I have and had them make me a quesadilla which hit the spot! I'm super happy with how this camp went -- even if it was tough and didn't always feel great, it always feels good to work hard!

PS- For a good laugh...
All week I guess there have been some cute Brazilian boys on a little boys trip. Every day at around 3 p.m., they come down from the mountain and jump into the pool and rock their speedos. I have not noticed them until today (apparently a man in a speedo does nothing for me). I guess they have been mesmerized by all the U.S. women running around. So, now since it must be getting close to their departure day, they are getting a little more aggressive. So I am sitting here watching a preschool flirt-fest going on. They started at about tea time and have been strategizing how to pick American girls up ... what they came up with was a question on paper plane that came soaring into our laps. It read "Want make a brazilian party tonight?" We sent a baseball paper plane back saying "only if it's in a speedo!" ha ha and right then and there they pulled their pants down and showed us, yes their speedos that they wear all day all night. Pretty funny. I get such a kick out of watching these crazy kids! Hilarious, that was pretty much the end of it but who knows, maybe Hailey will make a video of them in their speedos in the pool tomorrow.
