Austria Quote by Mike Tindall
“I started going on ski trips at senior school. I can't remember exactly where but we skied in the Tirol in Austria a couple of times and also went to Val d'Isère in France. When I was 15, rugby took over and there wasn't time to ski any more. I didn't ski again until I was 33.”

![“Zara [Phillips] skis very well but is happy to take it easy around me. She will often wait for me when I'm on my snowboard but she can really whizz around if she needs to. I only snowboard if I'm on my own with Zara; if we're with other people who want to go a bit quicker, I will stick with skis.” quote by Mike Tindall](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/a5b/mike-tindall-41966_bits_zara-phillips-skis-very-well-but-is-happ_1897432.jpg)
