My Ski Trip

The sun rises, yet snow starts falling right away. Two rabbits on skis come out of snow-covered houses. They wake up Tanuko, a drowsy raccoon dog, and ask him to join them for skiing. Tanuko doesn’t know how to ski and hesitates at first, but after seeing the rabbits glide smoothly down the slope, he decides to give it a try. Nervously, he heads downhill. His first attempt ends with him falling backward. On his second try, he goes too fast-his legs and skis fly off. The rabbits then show off with a ski jump, so Tanuko, feeling competitive, sits on an umbrella and races down the slope. The umbrella transforms into a plane, and he flies through the air. Watching this, the two rabbits merge into a sleigh and chase after him. Tanuko’s mouth turns into propellers, speeding him up. The rabbits go too fast, trip, and tumble. Tanuko laughs at them-but in doing so, he smashes into a cliff and gets buried in the snow.
