Time for the photo diary of our day at Mount Perisher last Saturday. Okay, I might have taken more than one picture an hour… Instagram is so much fun and I seriously had to resist overloading this post with a billion photos of Theodore! But just as much fun as taking photos ~ snowboarding again for the first time since last year. Wow. It was great….. But let me get on with the pictures before I bore you all to death with recounts of my runs!
6:00am ~ We get up before the sun and say hello to Mr. Moon. Early mornings are not my thing, but I do appreciate a beautiful sunrise.
7:00am ~ Artistic photos while Husband and his brother do the boring stuff like load the car with an insane amount of gear! We almost didn’t fit in the dog; but once I put my nifty packing skills into play we were able to drop her off at my parent’s place so they could dog sit.
8:00am ~ *sings* “On the road again; it’s good to be on the road again…”
9:00am ~ Fellow adventurers to the snow; we were just in more of a hurry to see…. The snow! I know you can hardly see it in the picture, but I promise that it is there.
10:00am ~ Hiring snow boards and feeding the baby at base camp {i.e. Jindabyne}. Theodore with his fuzzy babyhawk is all “Whooo! Rock on!!”
11:00am ~ Up the mountain; I only wish we could stay at that motel! Husband graciously lets me ride first whilst he keeps an eye on Theodore, so here I am on the Triple chair lift at Smiggens.
12:00pm ~ Maybe one of these days I’ll try to take a shot while I am moving on my board, but for the moment here’s a snap that I took while “resting”…. Okay, so I fell on my butt a few times. Hello! Just had a baby! So Feather {my snowboard} and I take a well earned break.
1:00pm ~ Theodore’s Talkies: “Zzzzzz” Translation: Happy Mommy!! : D I look after the bubba, then Husband and I go for a ride. Look! He’s on top of the world! Waiting for me again…
2:00pm to 5:00pm ~ Things get a little hectic at the end of the day; I pack up baby after finishing some runs with Husband and drive to my friends house. We warm up in front of the fire while I feed and change Theodore{again}, while also fitting in a month or so of catch up chat into one hour. Then I leave pick up Husband and his brother but end up running late. Whoops!
6:00pm ~ We say goodbye to daylight, and to the snow, and by this stage I am too tired to be bothered taking any more pictures…. Really our day didn’t end until 10:30ish, but like I said, no more snaps!
I may have been knackered at the end of the day, but it was sooo worth it. I had a blast and as always, cannot wait to go again!

It looks like fantastic fun! I hope you don't have to wait too long until you do it all again.
ReplyDeleteOh, it was! I think we are planning to go again around mid August ~ of course that seems like a terribly long time away, but I am sure it will come soon. : D
