Mt Hotham Ski Trip

Sorry for the lack of updates. Been pretty tied up with "stuff" and recovering from the recent back-breaking ski trip to Mt Hotham. Apparently, I felt invincible and went really fast down the blue runs. How was I supposed to know that that kind of speed in parallel skis could toss you up in the air, flip you over and knock you out? I guess the couple of somersaults, the sprained neck, the scratched face and the mutiple bruises taught me well. So well that I think I must've snowploughed all the way downhill. :P


Despite the many falls and injuries, it was a sensational trip. Many thanks to the planner - Sherlin, who did a superb job in getting everything organised. :)

As always, pictures speak better than words ... :)

Can't remember which part of Mt Hotham this is but it was a rather warm day even though the mountains were covered in snow.



The view from where we stayed.



From left to right: Sokling, myself, Om, Joe.



Sokling on my right and Sherlin on my left.






All the 'Sokling and I' shots.




And all the other group shots.



Some shot Sokling took on our way back to Melbourne.



Another one.



Poser Joe.



Sokling and Om. Sokling's an extremely fast learner. She was taking level 3 lessons by the 2nd day even though this was her first time on the snow!



As for Om, she's the expert skier in the group. Parallel ski all the way. ;)



Can tell we had fun. This was taken just before we head back home.

Have no idea what the hell I was doing. Think I was wiping my hands or something. Anyway, just to show where we stayed (didn't manage to take many pics of the place). As you can see, behind is the kitchen. In front of me (which you can't see) is the lounge. And on my left is the stairs leading up to the bedrooms (imagination needed). :P


So that was our skiing trip. Enough details or not, Jean? =P
