A guessing game: Where was the AlmeidaFam?

We took a trip to a super fun place and just got back this morning. It was only supposed to be a single overnight but the snow storm forced us to stay an additional night. It was such a hardship to stay that second night - not!

I thought I'd make a game of guessing where we were - and what we were doing in the pictures. Just post a comment with your guesses.

#1 - We had a zippity do dah first day with this! There was not one ounce of fear from either of the Almeida kids - just smiles and laughs through the whole course.




#2a - We got L. back on downhill skis for the first time in three years! (She had a bad fall a while back and hasn’t been interested in getting back on a mountain… on these kind of skis. But her cross country skis with no edges and minimal control on downhill terrain doesn’t bother her a bit tho - kids, go figure!) Guess what mountain she's on.


#2b - What a difference 18 hours can make at the mountain. Our snowy second morning didn’t stop us from getting on the step-up-from-bunny-slope trail for some more downhill fun. The new powder was great.


#3 - L. catching snowflakes like this was a total novelty for her. And neither of the girls has had this sort of snowball fight venue. Do you know the name of the building that houses this particular feature?



#4 - If there are dogs around, my kids are thrilled. There’s a new adventure just about to start at this place and we met a few dogs from the working team that will be taking to the trails in a couple of weeks. My kids can't wait to visit again to see the dogs in action.


And this is just L. karma so no guessing required. If there is a pig of any kind around, my kid is going to find it. This happened to be the only piece of animal art in the resort's lobby and L. was very happy to see it was her favorite animal.
