This is for Khengsiong. This is what I used to dream of when I was growing up in Borneo. "I am dreaming of a white Christmas."
In Auckland, winter is just cold and usually wet, gusty wind and squalls. Occasionally we have frost and hail, and lots of rain. You can drive 4 or 5 hours to the mountain, and you can ski at Mt Ruapehu.

These are my cousin Alicia's photos.
Wow! wasn't quite ready to see snow yet! Beautiful view though.
ReplyDeleteYes, great Ann if skiing's your thing. Wished I could have afforded it in my younger days. - Dave
ReplyDeleteLovely to be in the snowy mountains...
ReplyDeleteNow that's what I call a great way to spend some time outdoors. I don't ski, but I do love a good view!
ReplyDeleteBrrr. I will dream of this as the weather gets horribly hot here in the next few days.
ReplyDeleteDo you ski?
Are you somewhere in this picture, buried under all the cold weather clothes? So you are a good skier? We went skiing once, I fell, could not get the skis off or get up, my husband helped me untangle. I spent the rest of the day in the ski lodge drinking hot chocolate while he skied!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos...my sons are anxiously awaiting the snow in our mountains so they can go snow boarding! It is still very much summer here!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great think to do there!
