So what's a 'Schlitten'??? My guess is a sledge?

We were using teatrays with string today - still good fun!

Yes, is a sledge that you steer with your feet, stretched in front of you, against the ground, as you come down the mountain on a "groomed" path. It's a lot of fun, but you can also "bite the snow" on the turns, and also trying to avoid everyone else on the course, which at times, is only couple of meters wide.

That really sounds fun, technique as well - can you get them in Troodos?

Actually, I haven't been to Cyprus for 43 years, since leaving at age 9, so if you are willing to be my "tour guide", I will show you how to "schlitten", if they have 'em in Cyprus.

We all keep a child inside us...we just have to learn to control that. Its not that bad to act like a child you know some times....they are having fun...they are so innocent and calm, they want to play not to harm anyone. They share and they are happy.
We just have to learn where to act like children and in what matters to take them more serious and act like adults.
Sometimes I wish I could act like a child more often and think like one too. They know who really loves them and who dont but still they dont have hater inside them and they know how to forgive, forgot, enjoy every minute of their lives....

Niki thanks for the photos are really great...I was awake all night just to see the snow and I was still awake when it melt
