After all of the stress at work, we (BF & I and 2 mates) decided to do a weekend away and catch the last bits of snow for this season.
With the recent spate of rain (and the recent road closure due to floods), things could have been quite dicey if it wasn't for the very gorgeous *unexpected* weather over the weekend.
Not to say that there wasn't much drama involved. The drive Friday evening was marred somewhat at Mt Beauty. We were on a 4WD and seeing that we were staying overnight, needed alpine fuel in order to not get diesel freeze up. Getting there at 8pm - all of the service stations *yes, all 2 of em* were SHUT! OMG! On a Friday night! During school holiday times! We weren't the only ones stranded there however, there were 3 other groups also contemplating where to go. After some investigations, we had to traipse back to Bright that added another 1 1/2 hrs our trip, so by 1030pm, you had 4 very tired and very grumpy travellers.
It was all well worth it though, the next day turned out simply lovely. And we decided not to rush, took it easy and - well, will let the pictures speak for itself.
All pics taken from my Nokia phone hence the low quality.
