While down in New Zealand Dave and I spent most of our time staying at a great bed and breakfast run by James and Kim Lazor and their two daughter's Kira (4) and Sophia (6). On an off day from racing Dave and I, along with the top Kiwi skier Ben Griffin, were able to visit Sophia's classroom in Queenstown as her show-and-tell item. It was a lot of fun. The Q&A session consisted of three questions being asked in repetition: How many races have you raced in? How many have you won? Which one of you is the best? Pretty funny.
Local media was on hand and we were written up in a local paper, Mountain Scene, so I was sure to throw on the ITA uniform. I am sad to say that I left the hard copy in New Zealand, but I was able to get the link to the article as well as some pictures from the photographer on hand. ITA goes global!
