    If I had met someone in the mountains of Austria, Switzerland, or even Canada - or any other places well known for their snow - when I asked them where they learnt to ski / snowboard, had they told me "Australia", I would have laughed in their face. Before I came here, I thought of Australia as that place on those aussie shows, where the sun shone 24/7..
     
    This weekend gone, I finally made it to the aussie ski slopes.. "dont expect much" I was told.. Granted, I knew New Zealand is famous for its snow, but for some reason I just expected Australia to be hot and sunny all year round. (turns out places are, Darwin eg is 30C even in winter)
     
    According to Wikipedia...
     

     
    Its not a cheap sport in this country at all, $70 for the hire of the snowboard and boots for a day (about 50 quid) and it was $107 for the lift pass for the day..
     
    Anyway, only posting this as a reminder to myself to get back down the snow as much as possible...
