Rocked up and met them and their room mate Raquel, All very lovely people. we quickly got into the alcohol and finished preparing the food.

Many drinks later and lots and LOTS of food, we ended up finishing our "christmas eve" about 6:30 am :D

I got up at 10 and decided to get on with the day rather than sleep some more.


Christmas Day
Ended up meeting up with Emma (Friend i met recently that is from QLD) and some of her friends and we randomly ended up at a tobogganing slope and going down a few times.
They had made a big ice rink out there and there was someone in a frosty the snow man costume. Was great, They were also doing free hot chocolate :D

In the afternoon i went to Heidi's and Heidi, Theresa, Emma and I cooked up some dinner and watched some movies.
By the end of the day i was totally buggered!


Next day i wake up and check the snow reports, Mt Norquay, 6cm... Sunshine village 19cm!!! :D
OUtta bed, get dressed cook up a breakfast feast of ham and eggs and then head out to sunshine village to be greeted with a fresh covering of snow on the mountain.

This is sitting on the edge of a cliff drop off going down into some powder :) That was a fun rush, just have to dodge the rocky bits

And on the way home i took my car to the car wash and gave her a clean.
