Ski Jumping and Happy New Year!

After two days of skiing, we were more than ready for a nice relaxing New Year's dinner. We spent the evening with our fellow Olmsteders Josh and Nikki enjoying a delicious Bavarian Dinner topped off by a fireworks show. It was a great night:




The next day we took a break from our own skiing lessons to watch the pros at work. We had never seen a ski jumping competition and it was unbelievable.
The ramp was so high......these guys must be truly fearless.

If you look really closely at this pic, you can seen the ski jumper flying through the air.......it was so amazing to watch in person.


On another note, we have had lots of winter weather here in Strasbourg..........snow has covered the ground for a full week and it's still coming down today. We hear it is the same in the US. Hope all of our friends and family in the south are staying warm!
