The mountains came into view
Still raining before we got up there.
The sun started to peek through
And up we went, leaving the Cantebury Plains behind.
Nick checks the tension on the snow chains
and has a fag...
Chore one is for Nick to give Jess some tutoring
Nick psyching up
Ready to roll
This is Nick coming down the slope
Nick
Jim and his "interesting" head... thing
Jim
Jess gets expert tutoring on the slopes
Jim
Jess hits the slopes for the first time since she was 5.
Going well
Gone
Up the top, Jim and Nick feel the cold
Looking a bit stressed?
No! Not 15 minutes later.
Nick and Jim head up to the grown up slopes, leaving Jess and Stephen to ski on the baby slopes. That's them on the lift.
They mastered the mountain in minutes/ That's a long way up.
A wee break on the drive down again
Home at last. Tired? You bet!
