Going to the Snow

Um yes it is snowing as far down as Taihape at the moment. It always snows in Waiouru and we will be there as of Sunday so if you want a day trip to the snow at least you know coming to Waiouru you have a toilet , and a warm place to thaw out before you head back home.

I think for the first snow you should take the up to the Central Plateau so it is real white snow. Up at Apiti it isn't always big lots and can be quite dirty snow as it thaws out real fast.

Teresa, was us that was saying about taking Paris up around her birthday. If you wanna make a day of it we can all pile into our cars and head on up to the mountain, am sure all the girls would have a blast together! - we were thinking of grabbing a little tobbogan thing for the kids to play on in the family area.

We know so far that the dessert road was closed last night, - we had a blast on the way back from holiday last year around july/august when it was snowing as we were going through - it was quite thick in places but we weren't as well prepared as we could have been. I think around then is a pretty good time because there's been enough time for it to get a really good covering everywhere. I said to mike last night after the news said the dessert road was closed "lets go this weekend" to which he said "yeah that's all well and good but you still actually have to get into where the snow is, - if the roads closed you can't do that" silly man stating the obvious... ok so i was being blonde. lol

Drop me a line if you want to do that Teresa - then afterwards we can all head to Becks and bombard her poor wee boys with masses of giggling girls.
