Here's a joke about my country; 'winter is nine months long, and the other three months are good for skiing.' It isn't true! Here the winter months are December to February but it is often cold in spring and autumn too. Our summer is short but warm' with very long days. Spring is my favourite season. It's the best time to go skiing. I love going fast down a white mountain under a beautiful, blue sky. Sometimes you can still ski in June-isn't hat amazing!
