Okemo Mountain Resort- Ludlow, Vermont
We decided to hit Vermont over the latter half of the kids February vacation, and after checking out the numerous options for skiing & other family fun, decided to head to Okemo, in Ludlow, Vermont. Okemo is amazing! Lots of family fun, with skiing, snow tubing, an ice skating rink...they had even built a huge igloo for kids to play in. So, that was the good part! The bad part about this trip is that Ethan got sick the night before we left, and stayed sick pretty much the entire time we were there. Poor guy, he couldn't hold anything down, so got very well acquainted with the hotel room. He did manage a few snow tubing runs our first afternoon there, but that seemed to do him in...it was all down hill after that. He was a trooper though, and made the most of it, enjoying some Olympic coverage & cartoon time in the hotel room. Lucas & Kathleen managed to hit the ice rink one morning, and Alex & Lucas got in an afternoon of skiing/snowboarding before we decided to head home early. We have to admit, we forced a sick child out of his warm bed to get the Vermont picture...hopefully we'll get another chance to visit Okemo!
