style=\"text-align: center;\">This was our first time skiing. We went up the chairlift once we got into the ski area, not knowing what was ahead of us. We chosen the the Edelweiss trail &#8211; for beginners. We took a very long time down the course, falling countless of times. Regretted not taking any photos or videos of JR falling down. After we got down, we saw people practicing the way to stop. We then realized that we were very daring to proceed with the trail without any practice! We gave up with the trails and spent the time practicing and playing with the snow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"
