Snow Tubing!

Hello all!

I went Snow Tubing with Yinyin this afternoon.. It's like the thing that you can play in Snow City back in Singapore but only that it's real snow and outdoors..

It was located a few minutes walk away from Snow King Resort..

Our purpose there was to use the toilet.. Haha..

The Lobby Lounge..

The US flag, Wyoming flag and some other flag..

The temperature started rising today so the ice and snow started melting.. It even started raining! I made the mistake of wearing my ugg boots and my feet were all wet and sloshy.. And not to mention cold.. Eeew..


The both of us only ate 1 meal since the morning so we grabbed hotdogs as afternoon snacks.. And like all recreation facilities, food is over- priced and not nice..

And you can ski at Snow King too! It's the only place in Jackson Hole which offers night ski-ing..

And after much walking and almost falling down, we made it to the ticket booth.. It costs US$16 for 1 hour.. But the both of us snipped some $2 discount coupon out from the Jackson Hole Daily.. =) And you need to be a minimum of 42 inches to ride the tubes..

So we just needed to sit on the tube and the lift will haul us to the top of the mountain like reeling fish out of the water.. Haha.. But it's so much better than lugging the huge tube up to the top by yourself..

I stored Caden away as I was so scared to break him while sliding down.. Haha.. And oh, ghost hand..

It's either that the hole for the butt is too small or my butt is too big.. Haha..

Heading up on the lift.. It would start and stop at random if people on top couldn't pull their tubes free on time and it was so scary as we felt like we're going to be jerk-ed off.. Haha..

Up and up we go.. And see those two girls on the left, they're carrying the heavy skis, wearing those tight boots and hiking up the mountain! Haha..

Pretty mountains.. We could slide down in different styles- Straight, Spinning, Lying flat or Together.. The two of us came down together several times but the most scariest of all would be the spinning together style.. Haha.. Cos you had to grip the feet of your partner real tight.. And we filmed two videos of us sliding down together and I combined them.. Watch it here!

The sun was setting!

Pretty! And I think the people pulling the tubes look hilarious.. Rush hour traffic.. Haha..

And we were so damn tired after that 1 hour.. Haha.. All that screaming and lugging the tubes.. We were on the phone with Peiting that moment deciding where to go for dinner..

Settled for Chinatown Restaurant.. Peiting didn't join us in the end cos she missed the bus and the next one was in 30 mins.. Wandi was working tonight and he got all excited knowing that Yinyin was from Malaysia too.. Haha.. Why haven't I met any Singaporeans yet? =(
We both ordered the dinner special which included a bowl of soup..

Spring Roll.. I don't like both photos.. Haha..

But I love this! Haha.. And the main course was some Szechuan meat dish with fried rice..

Alright! I'm heading back to work tomorrow and I'm hoping that they won't cut my hours.. *Prays* More guests, more guests, more guests.. P L E A S E.. And oh, payday's on Friday! Whoo Hoo! Good Night!
