Ski Camp Day 2

image

Snow wars, snow caves and more...

Unfortunately the ski field was closed today due to the weather.   However, it hasn't hampened our spirits or our adventures.  Today we had a sleep in and a leisurely breakfast.  Then our activities commenced:

*Trying on our ski boots (fingers crossed we will get to use them)

*We prepared to head outside in our ski gear and winter wear

*Snow play in the abundant soft snow outside our lodge

*Back inside for a lesson about the NZ mountainous weather

*Many were fascinated by watching ice melt in a pot on the fire

*Headed outside for our second round of snow play.  We built our snowball battlefield with snow walls and hundreds of snowballs. 

*Snow wars was on!  Snowballs being projected at children and Dads as they raced across the battle fields, dodging, sliding and hiding behind their snow walls.

*The Dads built a very impressive snow survival trench while others built snow tunnels and digging out the skidoos that had been completely covered by snow overnight. 

*The kids snuggled into their PJs, grabbed their pillows and watched a movie before bed. 

Goodnight all!
