Back Log: Ski trip to North Carolina

last weekend, we set off for north carolina! Skiing, the rest of the guys couldnt go as they have lessons on friday, ahaha me zhiyu and xue went with 2 other guys from the last batch GIP group. they went skiing a lot! we rented a car and off we went!! as Georgia's state laws restricted the use of fireworks, we stumbled upon a FACTORY of fireworks in south Carolina!!! we bought sufficient TNT to blow my hostel away!!! (jokking) but its really amazing to see their range of fireworks. We didnt get to play with it on the way back as it was raining, but soon.....haha.

Skiing was SHIOK, though i rushed into the intermediate level and sprained my knee, the adrenaline kept me pretty much going and yah, i'm suffering the consequences now haha. managed to even try the advanced slope, although i tumbled down real funny! and boy was it steep or wat, i reckon that hill was a 60 degrees or more!!!

we had tons of fun but haha i was pretty much sleeping on the way back, stupid pain in the knee.... heres some pics.....hope i get to go again before the snows all melted

See the size of that place, this is just a quarter of the Fireworks shop!!!

The drive through Carolina was pretty scenic, especially the north part, as its more mountainous and snowy!!!
Heres the place!!! WOLF LAUREL ski resort
you might have guessed, too green horn to dare to bring my camera up, cos keep falling initially when skiing, all the rest was taken pretty much at the end of day, yeah skiing ends at 10 pm, cool rite!
me and ah yu with the slopes behind, haha u wun see it, too dark

a pictorial map of the ski area, look at me cursing the slope i tumbled down!!!
