Skiing at Perisher

We managed to get away for our annual snow fix this weekend and what a change in fortunes! Left Sydney on Thursday afternoon and stayed with friends in Canberra (3 hours south).  We were off bright and early on Friday morning and, after getting G some hire skis, boots & clothes, got on the slopes Friday lunchtime.  Lotsa snow and lotsa fun.  Stayed at Smiggins Hotel about 50m from the chairlift.

Had an awesome day on Saturday and then a southerly moved in!  Australia is a land of extremes. When it's windy boy is it windy?  We had a storm blow through that continued through the whole of Sunday  The resort was closed so we got a credit on our Sunday ski pass.

Our journey back took us back through Canberra, where we stopped at the annual Floriade Festival ( mini Dutch bulb festival).

All for now.
