I finally realised that this is my last snowboarding trip.
I have no courage for it.
The things I like is the earring and drinking but other than that this type of holiday is not for me. For too long I have forced myself to try and like it, to fight the fear. I feel sad that I won’t be able to come on these holidays anymore.
But at least there will be a saving.

It is truly beautiful in Austria.
The food is excellent the slopes are wide and pretty empty.
But the relief I feel that this is probably my last day trying to snowboard. We are due a snow dump this afternoon so conditions may not be great.
So it’s time to let go, time to stop appeasing my husband and his big Bluey green eyes and leave this part of my life behind me.
My bindings and boots are fairly new so I will hopefully be able to sell them. My board will stay with me. I will display her pride of place and be thankful she got me through so many slopes in so many mountains.
France, Bulgaria, Japan and Austria. I have been very lucky with where I have visited, the mountains I have seen.
Forever grateful to be hanging up my snowboard.
