skiing

For reasons as yet unknown to myself, I took up the call for cross-country skiing, joining all of Oslo on the trail. After so much snow, it seemed as if the entire town was out for a weekend ski. To get to the cross country trails, all you have to do is catch the T-bane (tram) that goes up. Now, that should have been a warning to me that the tram went UP. I thought cross country skiing meant a flat trail, but not here. The first 10 meters were downhill and I fell at least 6 time in that 10 meters. We eventually went 6 km, but I admit to falling more than skiing. Sometimes, it was more like face-planting. So, while that photo of me looks like I am really moving, I am a complete poser. But, the trail was incredibly beautiful and I am glad I went, even if I couldn't lift my legs the next day.
