Not as nice a day today but still pretty good. Our legs were aching a little from yesterday but we still got out on the snow before 9:00am. The snow groomers had done their job and the snow was in good shape. Skied mainly on blue runs and we all had a great morning. Stopped for coffee at a cafe at the bottom of one of the lifts halfway up the mountain and continued on until about 11:45 when we headed for Cloud 9, the restaurant on the mountain at a junction of s...

Woke to a cracker of a day. Blue sky and sunshine, just what we had ordered! We all got going early and were on the slopes not long after 8:00am Conditions were perfect and we enjoyed a great morning’s skiing! Had lunch at the cafe up on the mountain and had a short afternoon session. My thighs had had enough and were complaining and we all returned to the lodge for a cuppa and a rest. Chris returned to ski a bit more as it was such a lovely day and he was the ...

Lisa was heading to Cairns today for 5 days so she walked across the road to the terminal for her 7:30am flight. I had to meet Chris, Dave M and Dave C at the airport for a week of skiing at Falls Creek. They had all arrived by 7:30 and we headed off for the long drive to the mountains. Stopped at Seymour for breakfast and Bright for lunch then a short stop at a loockout above Mount Beauty township. Eventually arrived at Falls Creek and unloaded the car and parke...

It was Father’s Day so had a bit of a slow start which was probably not a good idea as we had a lot to do! After breakfast transferred the contents of the ute into the van and moved it to the storage location. Had to also remove the kayaks and racks as we would be parking at the airport and there was low clearance. Drove to Claire’s share house and met her housemates who were all lovely. Claire had organised for us to go to Scienceworks and also booked lunch ...

Freezing cold start to the day. The battery was flat again but at least the diesel heater worked. Eventually started the car and got enough power to run the pump and have a shower! Drove down the Hume Highway to Melbourne and the Big4 Coburg. Had some excitement about 1km from the caravan park when we went down a narrow street with parked cars on either side. I didn’t think we’d fit through but somehow managed without any paint removal! Spent the rest of the ...
