Winter Park Resort with Zeb and Soapy: Winter of 2015

Today, I Zeb the Duck and Soapy Smith Duck, went to Winter Park Resort.

We are here!

This resort is so much more that just a ski resort.   Leaving the parking lot we decide to ride the Village Cabriolet.

This free sky ride takes us to the village.

We love riding over the snow

From the sky ride we see the lanes for humans to ride in big inner tubes.

And look at this: another moving sidewalk to carry humans and tubes to the top for another ride.

Easy way to return to the top

This moving sidewalk is even enclosed.  Extra protection for rainy or snowy days. What a great idea!   Arriving in the village, we like this chair made from skis.

This wagon, and others, are for humans to carry tired children, tubes, skis snowboards, etc.

That is really convenient!   Isn’t this Coca Cola Bear just perfect?

Our friend!

We love him.   Snowboarders need a safe place to leave their snowboards while they rest, eat or shop.

Remember we are in the mountains in the winter and it is snowy and cold.

This fire pit feels nice, so warm and cozy.   This skating pond is wonderful for beginners.

Humans can ride on these, hold on to them for balance, or give the little humans a ride.   There are also experienced skaters on this pond.

Maybe some time we can ice-skate.

There are so many more things to show you at the village at Winter Park Resort.   We will have more pictures tomorrow, even showing you some skiers and snowboarders.    See you tomorrow at Winter Park Resort.

Tubing and Snowmobiles near Winter Park, Colorado

Today Zeb and Soapy went to Colorado Adventure Park to enjoy the snow and Colorado sunshine.   First we stopped at the Tubing and Snowmobile Tours building.

These snowmobiles look like we could have fun here.

This is a big snowmobile.   Too big?

They are big, but we are ready to go.   But wait… these are more our size.

This one is better for us.  Let's go moms

Now we are ready to ride.   We can go tubing also.   This hill is a better size for two rubber ducks.

It was fun!   The humans can practice on this hill and then come down this bigger hill on the tubes.

Now they are down, how do they get back up to ride again?

So easy.  Save energy for tubing downhill again.

Look at this moving sidewalk.   This is great for humans and ducks.   We like this place, but even with the bright Colorado sunshine, we are getting a little cold.   This fire pit area is just perfect for warming our feathers.

Warmth of fire feels so good!

We really had fun here today.   We hope you will try tubing and snowmobiling this winter.
