My First Sled Ride!

It has stopped snowing for a couple of days now, but the temperature remains below zero so the snow is still everywhere, much to my delight.
We joined several of Stephan's colleagues for sledding on the 420 meter high Landeskrone hill here in Görlitz this afternoon.

It was Mama Pig's first time at sledding and I totally loved it!

The film below shows Papa Pig and Mama Pig on a sled.

Stephan freaked me out when he wanted to sled alone with Midori on the adult sled. I vetoed it because it was way too dangerous for our little Piglet.Too bad our Golden Piglet wasn't enjoying herself as much as Mama Pig and Papa Pig because her tiny hands and feet were freezing the sub-zero temperature and the harsh wind blowing on her cheeks made it worse. Thus we had to leave earlier despite the fun.

Mama Pig loves sledding so much so that she is thinking of buying a sled.

Sledding

Despite the freezing weather, the thick white snow has been luring kids out with their sleds. While big kids are sledding from the slopes filling the air with laughters and sometimes cries of pain, toddlers are grinning away as their mothers pull their baby sleds on the streets.We bought our Pumpkin a sled, but we had to wait till she had recovered from her cold before we brought her out for sledding.
Our Golden Piglet loves sledding, even though Mama Pig was more excited than her piglet whose enthusiasm might have been dampened by the freezing wind. The 3 Lil' Pigs are having fun in winter wonderland. Oink Oink oink.
