Not been much to blog about lately really, we've sort of been getting into a routine up here in Ohakune. Robyn's working pretty much 5 days a week at Kings, and I'm haning out here at Canoe Safaris checking people in and then cleaning up the rooms after they've gone. School holidays were pretty busy, I think over the course of a week we cleaned the 6 rooms we have 21 times!
When we get a nice bit of weather or when our work allows, we're away up the mountain for some snowboarding. We've not been doing too bad really, progressing from sliding down the nicely groomed beginners meadow to getting on the lift and coming down a proper run. Both of us have managed to make it all the way down without falling off once, which we were pretty chuffed about. Robyn wasn't very keen first time we got on the lift, I think she thought she was going to fall out somehow, but so far nothing like that has happened.
The pictures show our snowboards from both sides. Robyn's is the shiny new looking black one, and mine is the battered scratched sky blue one. I think if we come back to Ohakune next year I might be investing in a better board, or at least one in better condition.
Week after next we're off to Taupo for Robyn's birthday which should be good, its about a 2hr drive from here. We called in when we had our lovely flowery campervan and it was a pretty cool place, hope the weather isn't too bad!
