Guest Blogger Report: Katherine and Elloise Smith

hi everybody,

Its Ellie here, and I'm here to report about the 13th of August at Perisher Blue.

The weather here is clear but the snow is, average. Although, Eyre and Towers were the pick over on Mt Perisher.

We're hoping for some great snow on Wednesday, to counter-act the recent rain which broke a lot of our spirits.

One interesting thing that happened today would have to be the debacle at the 'Over d'Eyre @ Eyre' kiosk. After warring for a seat and waiting half an hour in a queue, the four-dollar hot chocolates weren't as great as they're cracked up to be.

Today I'm seeming very negative, but other than that it was an amazing day out.

So now I'm going to hand over to my big sis Katie to tell us about her day. :)

The 'Bunda Challenge

The lighten the lack of inspiration and (I dare say) motivation I was finding common when thinking of my upcoming holiday, I set myself a 'challenge' of sorts.

By the end of the week (from Monday to Friday afternoon), I aspire to ride every single lift in Perisher Blue (at least those available to the general public, however a $10 bribe may buy the favour of a ski-school liftie).

DAY ONE

Today I sought to conquer Mount Perisher and the perilous Center and Front Vallies. Eyre and Towers proved to be the pick of the Mountain though International was so icy it made you feel like throwing down your stocks and giving up the sport altogether.

The Center and Front vallies were a blast from the childhood past. Indeed I passed all stages of my skiing life on the way down. As a MILO kid resembling a lolly pop, trying to master the pizza slice technique, as a grade three to four (ten year old) managing parallel turns and as a younger teen black diamonder, a speed demon with no sense of control (i formed a very close relationship with lift pylons).

Anywho, tomorrows destination is Blue Cow!

Au Revoir!!!

The Smith Girls

PS The Smith girls would like to point out the obvious lack of sanity possessed by the Managing Blogger on this site and would like to start a movement to remove the managing blogger and instate the guest bloggers as permanent resident of this site. SO THERE.

PPS just kidding.
