Skiing in Canada

Thursday and Friday I went with my mom and Bruce to Mont Tremblant in Quebec, Canada for a day of skiing. It was a lot of fun but the snow wasn't all that good. The resort is huge - about eight chair lifts and a gondola, plus many many trails... we barely used the same lift twice, let alone skied the same run twice :) Still, it was nice to get away and stay somewhere else for a change. It was interesting being in a bilingual area; I appreciated being able to read much of the French even though I don't speak it really anymore. Maybe someday I will regain my French ability, but not any time soon.

It's funny - despite having a two day adventure up there, I can't think of much to say about it. Overall, something about this break just feels off, such that nothing exciting seems to be happening. My only guess is that it is because I feel like I am missing so many people - maybe it's even just because I miss Becca so much. But whatever it is -- I wouldn't say it's preventing me from having a good time, because I think I'm having as much fun as one could be expected. It's just not sitting in quite the same way. It's kind of like eating when you have a stomachache... the food tastes fine, but it just doesn't feel like it's satisfying the same way.
