Winter Vacation

On the 29th of December (my brothers birthday) we left on winter vacation. We went to the state Michigan to ski (and for my dad to snowboard.) It was a seven hour drive including stops. We were going to ski on the Indianhead mountain.
We rented a little house where there was a fussball table, and a Sauna. My family wasn't the only family that came to the little house. There were two more family's not counting ours.
On December 30th we started skiing and for my dad snowboarding. It was a good day. I first remember some things that I learned last year.
On December 31st it was raining a little bit. When I got on the lift it was very wet. We only skied half day that day because all of us were soaking wet. When we got to the house we rented in the evening we celebrated New Year!

On January 1st it was a wonderful day to ski, the sun was up and there was a lot of snow. I went on the normal hill that I go on with my friend Michael (he is from one of the family's that I was talking about.) On the hill there were obstacles which on two of the same kind that I went on and one little ramp.

On January 2nd I with my family went to the Black Diamond hill (the second hardest) and spend a little time there. Then my family went to a different Black Diamond hill while I kept on skiing on this one. It was the last day of skiing.
It was January 3rd. We packed and then left Michigan. On the way back I read a book.
