Wonderful Closure of the Skiing Season

Well, it is hard work to reach...five hours in the bus! But decided as the ladies were, we reached on Easter Friday Kopaonik, and did not regret it all: snow still laid meters high, it was soft but not wet, the weather misty and windy on many occasions (particularly unpleasant on the flying lifts as ET called them) but we were spared a single drop of rain! Staying in a little apartment in the Konaci complex was a great choice (thank you Ana!), too!
Saturday morning, after a almost two hour power break (!) sun appeared and we made the maximum out of it! Most pists run through very lovely Sapin forests...
...and the black run from the highest point is really great, but "bubiliecht" as ET said. Other grown ups however looked at me with great reproach, ET was the only kid on that black run!



A fantastic discovery was however the "wolf's hut", a big fire place in the middle, great, great food, a generous landlord, skins to keep us warm - in combination with the gentle slopes a real treat! There are more of these small places along the pistes, but this one remained our clear favorite!
Weather turned really bad on Sunday, so ET learned to use the Tellerlift, and run it from bottom to top and bottom again all on her own!
A well deserved maize cob with a view from our apartaman window - we will return, hopefully with Papa!
