Day Twelve - Park City, Utah

Waking up was a little rough. I am not much of a partier. Really! Two days in a row was taking its toll. Nonetheless, we rallied and headed over to Mike's place in Deer Valley for breakfast and some skiing. Josee was kind enough to rustle up some eggs and toast and that along with some juice and coffee fortified us for the skiing day ahead. Paul and Anthony had left for Seoul and Shanghai respectively that morning (poor guys didn't get much sleep) so it was Don, Deb, Nancy, Don, Richard, Alan, Josee, Bettina and I; a respectable gang for a day of fun. There was not much new snow so we opted for a few hours of social skiing and a nice lunch at the Empire Lodge. A soak in the hot tub, a nice shower and a glass of wine later it was time for dinner, but not before seeing off the rest of the Hong Kong crew who had a late afternoon flight out of SLC.

That evening we had dinner with Robin, Seanie, Jim and a few others at the Blind Dog Grill in Park City. It was Jim's 49th birthday. Good meal and great company. Another evening of excess but what are vacations for anyway?
