In Canada, skiing is a favorite sport in winter. People love to go skiing and enjoy it. Last Friday was a special Valentine's Day for us because we had an interesting skiing trip. It was a sunny day that wasn't very cold. It was a good time to go skiing. I drove my classmates Ling, Pei, Ada and Sasena at 9:30 a.m. from Don Mills Station and arrived at the Earl Bales Ski and Snowboard Centre at 9:45 a.m. This centre is located at Raoul Wallenberg Road The price was just only 29:99 include the instruction fee, a helmet, a pair of snowshoes and 2 snowboards). I think the price is very cheap in Toronto.
Many people were skiing when I arrived there. I met a cute and little boy with his parents. I was surprised because he was only 7 years old but he could ski well. His mother told me whom he began to learn skiing 3 years ago and he often exercises in winter every year. Joseph is a excellent teacher, he patiently introduced us to skiing, for example, how to wear snowshoes, turn right, turn left, and stop! there were 7 classmates who took the ski lesson. They weren't easy to control and often fell on snow, but they laughed and stood back and tried to do again and again. What was very exciting fun! I had applied to learn skiing before, but my back was hurting, so I had to give up. I look forward to that next time! I couldn't go skiing with my classmates, but we were happy because we learnt something about skiing and took a lot of photos. We enjoyed the charm of this sport! Wow, It was the nice and more memorable experience of my life in Canada!
So glad that you came, Teresa, even though your back didn't let you get on skis. Thank you for giving rides and being such an encouragement to your classmates!
