If bobsledding was done in tubes

We also used our winter break to try out a place that our friends Shane and Emma told us about. There is a place in the Swiss Alps in Leysin, where they have bobsled runs for the public. The catch is that you go down them with inner tubes. For those who are 6 and older, they have 8 different courses rated like ski runs (green, red, black diamond). For kids under 6 there is a separate section with 2 different runs. Pete and I took turns going with Alex and helping Ruby and Henry. We had a blast.

You can either pull them up the hill with the rope, or...

...ride up via the cable

Unfortunately, on the little kid side there is only one way up.
Pete and I definitely got a work out pulling Henry and Ruby up the hill.

The inner tubes were smaller for Ruby and Henry

One of the fun things was that they would let you ride tandem.
