Weekend in Midway

JB and I have now made it a whole year as a married couple!

To celebrate our first anniversary together, we went out of town for the weekend to stay at the lovely Zermatt resort up in Midway (our original destination for our honeymoon before I got laryngitis and JB injured her back). While we were there, we also ventured to nearby Park City to tour the Utah Olympic Park, which was one of the highlights of the trip for us both.

The Olympic museum contains many interesting and interactive displays, including this game in which we had to balance a marble on its downhill skiing run:


Outside, we took a look at the snowboarding jumps:


After this, we went on a guided tour of the bobsled, luge, and skeleton runs farther up on the hillside via bus.


At the top, we got this eagle-eye view of the ski jump:


It's a heckuva view, and it was mind-boggling to think of the many athletes who have run these courses with a level of fearlessness I do not possess.
