Our 4 day adventure to the Italian Alps with the Bavarian Ski Club! We were invited to the club from our neighbors and friends, Eric and Bianca Davis. We boarded the double-decker bus on Friday headed to Italy, beer and sandwiches were provided on the bus. The trip went quickly as we chatted with new friends and had a few beers. We arrived in Trenton late that evening, checking into the hotel and then headed to bed since we had an early morning and full thee days of skiing ahead of us. The first day of skiing we went to the Kronplatz. Dinner was included with the ski club and we all ate together back at the lodging. The food was amazing and very filling. Valentine's day was spent on the slopes in Sella Ronda, a very unique mountain that you ski down and lift up and around this massive rock structure in a circle. Very amazing, although overcast and snow kept us from the stunning views of Sella Ronda. " Skiing in the dreamlike background of the Ladin valleys" Back in the day when there were only poor roads and no lifts, the Sella Mountains could be covered on skis. Since then the name of the Sella Ronda name stuck connecting the inhabitants of the surrounding Dolomite area. Ladin is the local language spoken there. Very unique ski routes encountering wooded area, rocky mountain peaks, snowy landscapes, and fresh powder. Jeremy did an amazing job skiing and we stayed together the entire weekend. It was a romantic Valentine's day getaway to Italy, enjoying some of our favorites- skiing, pasta, wine, and snow!
