Lachlan & Andrew at Perisher Blue 2001
This ice sculpture appeared late in
the week.
It was off to the snow during the last week of school
holidays, July 2001. Snow was a bit heavy on Sunday, with snowfall on
Monday and Tuesday, then great conditions for Wednesday to Friday.

Wednesday morning and George
was windblown but still hanging in there, hair in place.

Accomodation at the Station
was warm, as were most of the fights
|
The boys enjoyed
their stay, including the tucker, but maybe not the queues to get
to the tucker

On top - all to get an advantage
in the snowball fights

Lachlan continues his love affair
with water, at the Pub

On the Pretty Valley double,
which was a popular run, but became a little well worn in the middle

On the traverse from Blue Cow
to Guthega

Says:
The best thing was skiing, and the funnest thing was when Dad rolled George's head down the slope and it hit the skiing instructor. The worst thing was the snow getting in my gloves.
Lachlan Says:
I liked the Station Resort, and I had fun skiing, and the snowball fights, except the snow kept getting in my gloves and boots. The best thing was skiing. The worst thing was the run down from the top of the Interceptor Quad chair.
