IT’s better to teach your kids early to learn how to ski. Spring break is the best time to teach your eight-year-old how to ski because it’s vacation time here in the United States. For me, the most beautiful place in the country which is conducive to learning skating is Lake Tahoe because it offers the most spectacular view not just of the lake but of the evergreens, firs and the snowy countryside. After all, there is still snow left in Lake Tahoe Mountains at this time of the year because we are still transitioning from winter to summer. And don’t worry, Lake Tahoe skiing schools are equipped with all the safety gadgets and materials that you can think of and all instructors are experts and have even become skiing champions in the past.

There’s one point that one must instill upon skiing in Lake Tahoe, whether you’re still an amateur or an experienced skier. Never ever attempt to ski or drive a snowmobile when drunk. Always don the appropriate gear. If you want to avail of humongous discounts into your vacation here in Lake Tahoe, just do a Google search on the Internet. Another alternative is to call your favorite online travel agency Expedia or Travelocity. If you are the executive assistant of a company CEO, then you can suggest to your boss to have the annual spring planning of your company at Lake Tahoe for three days. This is a good plan especially if your company has raked in huge earnings and revenues last year. Giving back vacation bonuses to your employees can make the company reap more revenues for the succeeding year.

For North Lake Tahoe, you can actually book a condo suite at only $150 a night. Any hotel or condo suite here in North Lake Tahoe is just an eight-minute hike to the best skiing schools, casinos, restaurants, basketball courts and tennis courts here. Aside from the skiing, what I like most about Lake Tahoe is the food. Since Lake Tahoe is also home to dozens of freshwater species like opossum shrimp, Kokanee salmon, cladocerans, cui-ui sucker fish and Lahontan cutthroat trout, there are lots of seafood restaurants here. Some of the gastronomic stuff that you can dig into includes fried crabcakes, steamed shellfish, grilled prawns, calamari, seafood chowder and lobster tail. But the one that I like best is the one with the Mediterranean twist - scallops and tiger prawns made into pasta Provencal style.
