So, this weekend we decided to head back down to the mountain. Unfortunately there weren't many people around to go, so myself Si and Fiona headed down together. On arriving we headed straight to the pub for some food and drinks before heading to bed for an early start the next day.
We knew that we would only get one day skiing as the weather was forcast to close in on Sunday, so we made to most of Saturday. Up early and on the mountain by 8.15. Had a lovely breakfast up the mountain before catching one of the 1st lifts up. Really nice day up there and pretty good conditions. (especially after it softened up a little) After having an apres ski drink we headed back down to our accommodation before settling in at the pub for the evening. That evening we watched the final tri nations match All Blacks v Springboks. After 3/4 of the match, Fi and I were so knackered we headed to bed only to find out later that Fi won the guess the score and $120.
Sunday we got up to terrible weather, looked out the window and you would have had no idea that there were massive mountains right on the doorstep. After a few nice walks around the area we collected his winnings and headed up to Taupo to meet Nat and Jason for lunch. After lunch we headed back to Hamilton for a bit of a lazy evening.
Unfortunately I'm working next weekend so not doing anything too exciting till the week after.
