A Snow Trip

I love long weekends especially when I don't have to work or teach at church as it means we can take a family trip to Hobart and catch up with people we haven't seen for a while. This time we also took the opportunity to show William snow for the first time! Hard to think he is 4 and still not visited the snow yet. It had been a few cold snaps so there was a little covering on Mt Wellington, the best part is that we could still drive to the top plus stop and have a snow ball fight. Ryan was a little keen and pegged one at me while camera ready, result not a happy camera lady when it got all wet on the flash! Cool photo as you can see the snow ball coming!




The kids loved it, Amelia was not sure about walking on the snow so complained a bit but did manage to flog Ryan's gloves to have a snowball fight with us. William has no fear at the best of times and in the snow it was the same! It was far to cool for Charlotte to get out of the car so she snuggled up under her blanket in the car! Mum was happy to stand outside the car and that was it, she was not keen on the walking and falling down a hole in the snow!








It was a great trip and I appreciated the heater on the way down. Great views from half way down, as there was too much fog to get a clear shot of the views from the top.







We even had a snowman come home with us! He lasted until the Sunday on the car!!!!!
