Winter Sports...

It's been more than 6 months now since I'm at Minneapolis, Minnesota... Again I'm very fortunate to be here during the winter as it is called the "God's frozen land".. It's really amazing to experience the snow which is very rare for us back in India..

Last weekend, I had been to a snow amusement park called "Buck Hill".. It was an ever lasting experience for me... At Buck Hill, you can do skiing (which I had seen in TV till date), Snowboarding and Snow Tubing... In the freezing cold, I did snow tubing (as it was relatively easier) and it was a thrilling experience.. For Snow Tubing, you have to pay $13 and you can enjoy it for 2 hours.. Let me tell you, 2 hours time is a big duration to sustain in that freezing cold...

At Buck Hill, apart from different snow sports activities the presence of different food courts and coffee centers makes the place more special.. The prices are reasonable..

Going forward, definitely I'll visit Buck Hill more frequently and next time I'll try my luck with Skiing.. (May God save me..)..
