So this week we went skiing for the first time in New Zealand. As you can see from the photo, the scenery is bloody amazing! The snow still needs some time to get to really great skiing conditions, but our first day was a lot of fun.

The mountain is very different from European resorts, generally there are only 4 or 5 lifts and the runs are fewer but still as fun to ski. The lift queues are also not so much of a fight, with someone directing you into each gate, that’s kiwi organisation!

So the first mountain we went to was Coronet Peak and we’re hoping to head up to The Remarkables mountain next week (it was closed for a couple of days this week as a possum chewed through a power line!) and we’re looking forward to a few more runs opening up in the next couple of weeks. Can’t wait for the views up at The Remarkables!
