Flying Low

The drive down was not for the faint hearted.

View from Mt Hutt

The whole of Canterbury was covered in cloud and the drive up was scary with poor visibilty. Fortunately the ski slopes were above the cloud and the sun was shining on fresh snow. The view from the top was breathtaking, all around was a flat layer of cloud stretching to the horizon.

My Ski Instructor

Sarah has finished her course and is now a qualified ski-instructor. So today she took me for a lesson at Mt Hutt. It is a couple of years since I last skied so I could use a lesson.

What a fantastic afternoon; it should have been the whole day but all the clutch fluid leaked out of Sarah's truck and we couldn't change gear!
