雷诺两日游（下） 圈外闲人2011-12-22 07:04:33

我说：
老公带孩子们滑雪去了，我在酒店享受着自由的生活。

打开放置很久的Inheritance，开始阅读这本厚厚的大书，想知道骑龙者最后的结局。我读得很慢，一字一句，不知是英文的关系，还是阅读功能的退化，总之我的阅读速度比女儿差远了。

上午读书，下午散步，在寒冬的乱草堆中寻找美的痕迹。看到几位老者，牵着小狗，举着相机，悠哉游哉地打发着时光，我就这么加入了他们的行列。

女儿回来了，滑雪滑得太开心了，嚷嚷着第二天继续滑雪。老公与儿子误上了黑道（高难度），跌打滚爬地下了山。儿子年轻，经得起摔打，老公的斗志给摔完了。

“明天一早回家”，老公一言拍板，将我们的三日游变成了两日游。

儿子说：
Today was the day we went skiing at North Star at Tahoe. My sister went into ski class while dad and I went for free skiing. My mom stayed in the hotel. Skiing conditions were not ideal; there was almost no natural snow cover and you could see the grass and dirt in a lot of places. The trails open were the ones covered with manmade snow. Snow condition was alright, we went down many blue (medium difficulty) trails and accidentally went down a black diamond which we tripped through.

We skied until my sister finished her lessons, and went back to Reno. We decided to go to Circus Circus after dinner. Dinner ended up taking a lot longer than we expected because the Silver Legacy Buffet was closed, so we went to El Dorado’s buffet, now with double the line. We ended up waiting for one hour, leaving limited time to play. Despite that, Hermione won 3 stuffed animals and we watched a hula hoop acrobat performance. The performance wasn’t groundbreaking, but there was a lot of skill involved as the person managed to spin at least 12 hula hoops at the same time.

We had a lot of fun in Reno, and tomorrow will be a long day driving back.

女儿说：
BREAKING NEWS!

Today a spy named Hermione Ma, or, me, trailed an unsuspecting and innocent Kenneth Ma. In the morning, due to some ski lessons, I was unable to spy, but I wheedled some info out of Mister Ma later. Pondering on more spy techniques and when I should use them, I ate through two main courses in the lunch. When my dad picked me up, Kenneth bragged about how he could go down a black diamond trail without falling down. (By sliding on his butt. I even saw traces of snow on it.) When we all went to the Flavors Buffet, it was closed, so we spend an hour to get into the El Dorado buffet. I followed Kenneth around. He got ice cream, ravioli, and more ice cream. After dinner, we all went to Circus Circus. I won a Santa bear, a flower, and a $100 pillow.
