Sheregesch

I had heard about it for such a long time: Sheregesch, the ultimate ski resort. Pronounce its name and you'll see the local snowboarders have their eyes shining and their mouth watering with awe. Sheregesh is definitely pretty cool, with soft and fluffy snow that you don't get in lot of places in Europe. And the skiing between the trees is definitely awesome... "between" is the keyword here, that my good friend Aigul did not get apparently. She left patches of skin and some blood on a pine tree she met on the way down, and thought she broke a rib. A glass of vodka over lunch at the cafe at the top of the hill helped her see all this in a positive way.
The Niva rode the 1600km round trip without issue, which added to the good quality of the week end.

Looks like fun. Apart from the crashing into a tree thing. Who knew that vodka mended broken ribs? Will the benefits of this wondrous drink never cease?

Well, the benefits of this drink usually cease in the morning.
