Falls Creek, VIC

It was a shame really. After a 5 hr drive and with a sense of wanting to taste a bit of snow on the boards, what we got - nothing.

Falls Creek is the only Australian ski resort to boast ski-in ski-out but unfortunately due to the unseasonably warm August (plus heavy rain the week before) all the snow had melted and it was either patchy snow, icy areas or both.

A weekend wasted - could not justify paying another $106 for the daily tix (we had already paid $70 for resort entry, got Alpine fuel and 2 days accommodation).

Thankfully we are heading to Whistler, BC next yr.

View of the only snow on the mountain top. This time last yr - there was snow cover all the way to the mountain valley!

Random thoughts

I get annoyed at times that I don't really have a definite theme to my blog. Is this suppose to be a travel blog? Or foodie blog? Work related - or cooking perhaps? Pure randomness it is... nonsense stuff that comes to my head at a whim and goes as quickly as it does really. Gee whiz, no wonder I get confused!

Sometimes I have to remember to -

Blooming in the garden

Gosh - where has winter gone? It was 21' for the past two days and even the bulbs are getting things wrong. Daffodils blooming in August? So wrong.
