Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.
If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!
My question is:
If you could compete in a Winter Olympic sport (and be good at it), which would it be?

Boy I’m confused about the Links but I entered mine. Mine is 79 and this just came up like 2 minutes ago LOL. So much for google reader LOL. Well I would do the speed skating. I really enjoy that. Have a great Friday

I would totally do figure skating. It is so graceful! I am the opposite of graceful so that would be a dream come true
.-= Annie´s last blog ..WAHM Appreciation Day! =-.
Figure skating. Definitely figure skating although years ago when I was young it would have been skiing.

Hmmm… good at? Not really sure, but maybe try luge or bobsled.

Well now I came back and it wasn’t there and now it’s number 4…my computer is possessed LOL
.-= Thom´s last blog ..Scenic Sunday 83 =-.
I think figure skating would be fun!

It would be the luge, lol because it’s close to the ground and it’s over with quickly. And I’m tiny so I can fit in.
.-= Deborah´s last blog ..Welcome to FeedBurner =-.
I am not huge into the Winter Olympics at all. I would probably say curling cause that looks like a technique that I could master!
.-= Kimberly@PrettyPinkMomma´s last blog ..Aloha Friday – Sleep =-.
I’m sure I’ll be like most every other chica and say Figure Skating!! I would love to be able to do that

I enjoy watching the Winter Olympics, but I don’t think I would be good at any… I think Ice Hockey looks fun!

Curling. Love that sport, low impact also.
Here’s my Aloha Friday link for you
As a long time hockey fan, I would have to say hockey
I don’t know if I’d be good at it – but I’d like to try Curling. That actually looks kinda fun and maybe something I could do
.-= Sue´s last blog ..Aloha Friday & Friday Follow =-.
figure skating for sure
.-= Kristen´s last blog ..Reality???? =-.
I would love to be able to figure skate! I remember going to see Dorothy Hamill has a little girl and loved it! I was so proud and excited. My mom bought me picture while we were there and I remember showing it to everyone out the window on the freeway going home! What a little dork I was…lol

So this week I did it right and came up with my own question… and you more or less came up with the same one!!! There’s a different twist to mine, though
Sport I could DO? And Winter Olympics only, I see… I’d say skiing! It would make DH happy.

I love the grace of figure skating and the speed and excitement of skiing. But all these is wishful thinking because I’m such a klutz.
.-= Em Dy´s last blog ..Billboards =-.
Snowboarding would be really cool!

If I dared to do any of them, it would be the downhill moguls! It looked like so much fun.
.-= Cammi´s last blog ..Aloha Friday #17 =-.
My first instinct is to go with figure skating, but I have to agree that the curling looks interesting. Funny, hubbie really wants to get into it now, but I don’t think there is any place around here to try it out. Anyone tried it??
.-= Serendipity is Sweet´s last blog ..Aloha Friday =-.
Snowboarding or hockey!
.-= pam´s last blog ..Friday Follow =-.
If I couldbe really, really good at it? Figure Skating.
.-= Jennifer´s last blog ..Teaser Tuesdays-The Things That Keep Us Here =-.
I don’t know – I always would have said figure skating before, but I was having a lot of fun watching the snowboard halfpipe last night too, so maybe that would be it. Actually, I’d love to just be that good at anything.
I think snowboarding would be fun to be great at. Too bad I’m not naturally coordinated enough for that. lol

To be that good to compete in the olympics….I would have to pick downhill skiing. I always wished I could try skiing but due to physical issues couldn’t. My son skis and tells me how great it is..matter of fact…he is going tomorrow.

Definitely figure skating. I am scared of heights so that rules out most of the others LOL.

If shopping were considered a winter sport, I’d be a multi-gold medalist

Definitely ice skating! Love the costumes, flips, fancy foot work and performing with the nusic. It isn’t just a sport but an artistic expression!

I would be good at being a spectator only.
Ha! I would make a good judge…that’s about it!

I’d do the ice skating because I love to dance.

LOL, maybe figure skating? I think I would be a better spectator though.
.-= Melanie @ Whimsical Creations´s last blog ..Aloha Friday #17 =-.
I would ski!! I am terrified of it, but if I was good at it, it might be worth a shot
For sure it would be Ice Dancing! I used to take ice dancing lessons…many moons ago….even met my hubby at the Ice Palace Hawaii! lol!!
.-= East Coast Wahine´s last blog ..It’s Aloha Friday #24 =-.
That’s a good question, especially since I’m not terribly athletic! I guess it would be figure skating, since it’s one of the only ones I can do! Happy Friday
