I did agree to give cross country skiing a shot a few years later on a family trip to Quebec. Brave right? I went with the same individuals as the first time. Don't know why I agreed to it but I ended up being pretty happy with how that went. But I never tried it again. Too scarred from my first skiing experience.
But these photos have me thinking. Maybe I can go get hypnotized and overcome my fears so I can give it another shot....:)

I see all these people loving skiing and I'm very jealous but had a similar experience to yours and said "never again, thanks" but now I would love to give it a go again, but I think it's something you should do as a kid not a grown up woman... people over 15 learning to ski? have you ever had a chance to look at them? funny! and awkward honestly! it's kind of painful!
These pictures are gorgeous though, no wonder you want to give it a go! if you decide to go for it, good luck!! let us know how it goes ;-)
I haven't been skiing in awhile (I prefer the chalet, truthfully), but these images are definitely inspiring.
Hahaha - I don't think it's quite so elegant - but I do love to ski. :)
I had a similar experience to you, except I skiied many years of my childhood before calling it quits!
Cross-country skiing sounds better. Less hills.
These pictures are tres sexy, I for sure wouldn't look like that if I went skiing now. :)
Oh my gosh these are so sexy, love them....where's the ski's.
That is too bad about your awful 1st experience honey, not fun at all.

i love these photos! they make skiing look so glamorous, but as an avid snowboarder, i've got to tell you, there's nothing glamorous about a high of 9 degrees - which is what it will be when i'm in vermont tomorrow. :) so not looking forward to it at this point.
i do think you should try it again though! maybe take a snowboarding lesson? it's harder to learn at first, but you can master it much more easily than skiing...or at least that was my experience.
Oh, I'm loving this editorial so much. Thanks for posting!
