SKI DUBAI

Well here is our first experience at Ski Dubai. We had a lot of fun! Natalie had a private lesson and did pretty good for her first try. I am not sure if he taught her how to stop. She said he did but she was not showing any signs of knowing how to!!! She decided after an hour of lessons that she was ready to go down the mountain, so her and Danny went up....and she eventually made it down after a few falls...but no broken bones...and wanting more lessons! The mountain has a few different slopes to go down and they start at Blue...no greens for the new skiers. It was pretty cold in there! (how else are they going to make snow and ice) For being in the desert...you would have never known it in there. It was very real and they even had hot chocolate....Grey and I played in the snow park. They had a bob sled area, tubing and areas to climb so you could see the whole place. It is connected to a mall so there are lots of restaurants with a view. I felt like we were in a snow globe because there are lots of people standing on the outside looking in! The cost was not too bad. About $45 to ski for 2 hours and $20 to play in the snow park. After a couple of hours of the cold, we were ready to get back to the desert heat! So if anyone wants to come for a visit...we can show you how to ski in the desert! The t-shirts said: The Coolest thing to do in Dubai...i would have to agree!!!
