It was pretty nice outside during the day so we went to the Rutgers course to play a game. It was much less windy than the last time I played. I made some nice shots, no aces this time. Joanna made one awesome putt from probably 25 feet away. Too bad it was the second shot... Also, this guy parked here on purpose.
It was short and fun like the last time. I wish there were more courses to choose from around here. We ended our game with a five-point difference. Pretty close.
We went shopping at the Menlo Park Mall after the game and I found a hat and a scarf that I liked. We went to Target, where I found a pretty sweet coat. I did really good as far as shopping goes. All that buying made me hungry so we went to IHOP. We got an omelet and pancakes then, of course, dessert. Some kind of cheesecake with bananas and ice cream.. sigh.
We almost went ice skating but decided to save it for the city and went home to play Battleship instead. Apparently I have no luck at the game. I lost two games in a row. I was so close in the second one! That little boat is hard to find!
After a fun day out I was pretty tired so after the same shows and some stand-up comedy I was ready to go to sleep again.
Our third and final day of skiing was at Stratton Mountain. This mountain seemed about as expansive as the other but somehow much higher. The lifts and gondolas seemed to take forever to reach the top. It was awesome though, the trails were wide and went on and on.
If you notice the first picture, taken from closer to the top of the mountain, is hazy and the trees are snow covered. This picture is taken from lower and you can see how completely different it was. It was cold at the top and not so much at the bottom. It was snowing and cloudy towards the top and clear at the bottom. It was a really strange difference to ski through. I think this was my favorite of the three for sure.
When we got back to the hotel we got a pizza from Pizza Hut and topped it off a little later with ice cream treats from Ninety-Nine. Yep.
After our gluttonous evening it wasn't hard to get to sleep somewhat early after we packed up most of our stuff and put it in the car. Quite a fun day though.
