Hey, it’s still Winter officially. Put aside all your things, you’ve been doing and let’s go…sledge riding. Yep, you’ve heard me correct. And if you haven’t got any snow, well, then you’ll just need to imagine it, like I do. Imagine also a hill…not too big of a hill, not a mountain, not an Everest. But a reasonably hilly hill. And once you’ve done with imagining, let me push you off the edge. Hold on tight to your sledge, or they’ll arrive to the bottom without you. so…the sledge start moving…at first they’ll be doing it slow, as if trying out what that hill business is all about…then the speed will gradually increase and – look – you’re already sliding with all the slidiness your sledge could develop! Woo-hoo! Watch out for those bumps on your way, for if you accidentally ride over one, you might find yourself jumped into the air and while this could be a pleasing sensation, the landing back on your backside might cause few bruising, especially if you’ll miss your sledge…but isn’t it a thrill to be carried downhill at a speed that you can’t control!? When the only way to stop is to jump off the sledge, when you rush through the clouds of snowdust, unable to see where are you heading?!...But this way how would you know what awaits you at the end of your slide, at the bottom of your hill…I would advise you to hold tight, to scream with excitement all along the way and try not to fall off your sledge before they stop. And if you liked it, lets run back to the top and try it again! Nothing better for a thrilling experience then a speedy slide downhill.
Of course, there is a moral in this. But I’ve got tired typing all this, so I’ll let you figure out for yourself.
Oh, and one last advice on winter’s fun: if you wish to try out the toboggans, especially, those round ones, the ones that look like UFO, don’t do it on the icy slides unless you want to get completely disoriented, get your bum bruised so you can’t sit and generally feel like being sent into the open space with no hope for landing back to Earth in one piece.
