Day 5 - part two!

So the storms were eventually followed by heavy snow and the whole ski area was closed as the lifts were unable to operate.  We stayed in Alex's Pub, had another beautiful lunch and then, when the snow eased a little, headed out into the winter wonderland for a snowman-building competition!  This afternoon we're enjoying an extended swim to burn off some energy...

The good news is that the conditions on the slopes tomorrow will be excellent for our final day!

Last night's bottom boarding was also postponed due to the weather so, much to Mr Massey and Mr Coetzee's delight, we went shopping for souvenirs instead!  We are very hopeful that we'll be able to head back to the slopes tonight for the bottom boarding.

Keep the comments coming please!
