the eric update – day 953: ski jumping!
In Uncategorized on 12 February 2007 with 1 comment
today odin saw his very first ski jumping continental cup competition at the snowflake ski club in neaby westby wisconsin.
the ski club has a 118 meter olympic sized hill which can launch jumpers up to 140 meters ( 459 feet ), which you can imagine is super exciting for both adults and two-and-half year olds!
see all those steps up the left side of the hill? we walked up. every. single. one. of. them. phew!
after the competition, as we slowly made our way down the stairs they shot off a cannon 3 times which caught odin by surprise and explains why if you were ask odin about the ski jump, he’ll first tell you about the "cannin" 
you can click on each image for a brief description.
