Ski resort
it's winter
and it's very
cold and snowy outside
but Tara doesn't mind
do you Tara
That's because Tara is going away for the weekend to her favorite mountain resort
A resort is a place
you can go
to relax
and have fun
this resort has many different kinds of winter sports to try
and Tara wants to try as many kinds of sports as she can
First of all
she has to get very warmly dressed
with a thick winter jacket jackets and gloves to keep out the cold
Here's Tara on the ski lift on her way
to the top of the mountain
Give us a wave Tara!
yTara is skiing down the hill
She is going carefully
because she is not
wearing a helmet
really
Tara
You need a helmet to be safe on the ski slopes
Now slow down immediately
maybe you should try to do some touring instead
Touring is when you do not ski downhill
but explore the countryside on skis
it is hard work
but the view can be very beautiful
you must be careful to make sure
that someone knows where you're going
and how long
you'll be gone
Even though winter sports are great fun
you should always take care
so that doing winter sports is not dangerous
Tara also likes
snowboarding
and wants to do it more often
she has her
own snowboard
and last year she went snowboarding a lot
Snowboarding is very different from skiing
but it's still a lot of fun
For the afternoon Tara is going to do something different
The resort also has an ice rink
what do you do on an ice rink?
You skate an an ice rink
Here's Tara with her
ice skates on
she likes to skate
though it took a lot of practice before she could skate across the ice without falling
but look at her now
she's really good!
Tara sometimes likes to play
ice hockey with her friends
But she prefers to watch it on the television
because she is an ice hockey fan
and gets really excited when her team is winning
Another winter sport that Tara has never tried
is
ski jumping
imagine flying all that way through the air
it must be very exciting
but its another sport that
Tara prefers just to watch on the television
But what is the best
best part of winter sports
it's the apres ski
That's the part that comes in the evening
after a hard day of exercise
It's when Tara sits
in a confortable chair in front of a big fire
a and has something to drink
Have a good evening Tara
