A few days off :-)

Hey everyone,
One of the best things about being on holidays is having full power to do what we feel like. Even though it has snowed a few inches over the past couple of days, we just decided to have a few days rest from the mountain and relax. Those who know me are probably wondering "What the hell is kort talking about!" - perhaps I am getting old, but we didn't want snowboarding to become chore. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE snowboarding, but I also want to make sure snowboarding is something I don't get sick of - and having a few days off has certainly renewed my hunger to ride more powder!

Our mate Sean left on Saturday, and he also kindly took a suitcase worth of stuff we had bought over but have not used (why did I bring so many t-shirts?!). Not sure how Josie managed to cram so much stuff into one suitcase, but Sean and I were very impressed - right down to the sitting on the suitcase just to zip it up! Thanksfully the zips didn't explode open and the suitcase made it safely back to Oz. A 25kg bag currently sits in Seans garage waiting for it owners to eventually turn up!

Since Sean left, we have taken it easy - gone to a movie (saw "Untraceable" - not recommended. Rather unexciting really - 2 stars only!), and hung out at Borders bookshop just reading some mags and drinking coffee (or in Josie's case hot chocolate and low fat muffin). It was actually rather nice to unwind and watch the day go by. Of course we still went to the gym to sweat it out and get closer to a cardiac arrest :). The forecast is for more snow tonight so its all systems go for some riding tomorrow!

hope all is well,
CLS & JS
