Living in Asia: AnBo Town

Pictures taken in January./ Fotos fueron tomadas en Enero.

We have been wanting to try skiing for a long time now. But every time we planned it, one of us was sick or we had other engagements. Finally this past weekend we went and it was so much FUN. We both are not very good on snow, I ( Maria) tried skiing and Arturo tried snow boarding. We took lessons just to know the basics but even then we both sucked at it. he he
I do have to brag a little though, I didn't fall once, that was my goal. I can't say the same thing for my loving husband though. :)

The town is named AnBo and it is very close to Lian Shan, where we bought the fireworks at. Since it's starting to get warmer (32 degrees now) , there isn't as much snow so we had to get in as much skiing as possible before it melts completely. :)

Spanish Translation (ST):
Hemos querido ir ha esquíar, pero no abiamos tenido tiempo. Finalmente este fin de semana pasado fuimos y no la pasamos muy bien. No somos muy buenos en la nieve, poreso tomamos clases antes de aserlos solos. Si quiero decirles que no me cai ninguna vez! No puedo decir lo mismo por mi esposo. jeje

El pueblo de AnBo esta cerca de Lian Shan, donde compramos los fuegos artificiales. Como el clima esta como ha 32 grados, queriamos esquiar lo mas que se pudiera antes de que se redita la nieve.

No joke, I was standing in this same position for 15 minutes. I was so scared!

ST: Tenia mucho miedo y me quede parada asi como 15 minutos!

There were quite a few foreigners in this park, mostly Intel of course.

ST: Si avia algunos estranjeros y eran de Intel.

This was my first time all by myself without a teacher. yaay! I was trying to not give away how tense I was in the picture, but I didn't do a good job. lol

ST: Esto fue cuando el instructor me dejo ir sola.. yaay! No queria que en la foto me miraba tensa, pero no hice un buen trabajo en esconder mi miedo. :)
