Day 2-3: Mt Buller
Today, we were determined to see and experience more of the snow, and were raring to chiong coz we were now ready to 'engage' the snow in full gear!
P/S: When it gets difficult to recognise us, look at the beanies/beanie-lookalikes that we have on: white-Zoe, grey-Elena, light gray-Angela. Problem comes when the hoodies come on too...haha!
Okay, this pic looks so...Mt Everest!
On this 2nd day, we were really greeted by all nature had in it's related glory: snow check, hailstones aka coarse sugar check, fog check, cold check, wind check!
Hot chocolate may be my fave beverage, but how about ice cold choc? Okay, not funny. But I think I would really be a fan if that existed.
I think we look kinda similar, save the minimalist in the koala's dressing!
These kiddos are GOOD!
Check out how hair turns white in the snow...I mean by the snow!
What's wrong with this pic? ;)
Tobagganing begins! Sometimes, kids really do know best. They were the ones who taught us what it means to...erm tobaggan, rather than slide for a few metres then get stuck.
BEAUTIFUL!
We started to get a little adventurous when the kiddos disappeared. FREEDOM to do stunts...
And to crash from the stunts! Oops!
But what's wrong with falling down when you can always get up and going again! This is ground meant for falling on and getting the hang of it! ;)
"GOD! Hear my praaaayyerrr!"
My fellow jetsetters were so worried that my toes would really fall off due to the cold...check out my shoes! Please don't ask me why I didn't wear thicker shoes. ;) These gold shoes simply have NO friction, and are easily able to pass off as a tobaggan board for me to slide on! However, a revelation only came to me at the end of the day, after all the struggle: boots are available for rental. PTL.
Our starters for dinner! I felt so cheated lah! On Day 1, we saw 'bay bugs' on the menu and thought wow they actually call bugs a special dish that they have?! And on Day 2, we realised 'bay bugs' = crayfish. Yummilicious ones at that.
And there we had it, 3 days at Mt Buller, my 1st snow experience! Off we head to Melbourne city, with full confidence that the 5-15degrees C in the city will be bleh to us, having experience -ve temperatures + chilly winds here. As to whether we were right, umm, that shall remain something for us to know. ;)
