Experienced -4 temperatures today. Didn't freeze my balls off but it was close. Frustrating and good day on the slopes (oh actually only one slope for me) today. Frustrating cause I was struggling to get my turns going but great when I finally got it!
Cheap day for me as I was on the kiddie slopes all day today
and didn't have to buy a lift ticket ... technically ... ;-)
Went to Fergburger and got the Codfather.
I was surprised it lived up to its name.
Thats about it from me except of course for...

Day two and my body is hurting. Some will say it's old age... I'll say it was the 3 summersaults down a steep incline virtually under the chairlift. Mikey was saying that when people see someone stacking it, everyone cringes with empathy with them. I would like to think landing on my board and cruising away after this acrobatic display resulted in the thought 'he's a machine', however it would be more realistic to assume I provided a moments entertainment to the crowd above and recieving a barrage of laughter. I had the iPod on so had no idea what was going on above.
Spent the day on the upper runs and met more Aussies including some dude from Melbourne who's over here with a crew from a Presbyterian church and he grew up in an eastern European baptist church... interesting combination.
We forgot to mention that there were some guys from Kenmore Baptist on our flight over and Mikey briefly saw them today.
On the way home we made the customary pilgrimage to Fergburger. People rate it and it's usually busy for a reason and as Mikey said, it lived up to expectations. Here's a pic of the menu and as you can see, my choice of burger had already been made for me...

Not as sweet as the real thing though ; )
Lessons Learnt
- Glad the helmet I bought is a multi-impact model
- Nougat in subzero temps is really hard to bite into (choc bars are our staple diet)
- Photography and boarding down steep slopes concurrently isn't easy or smart
- Think I'll be visiting Ashley and Martin soon...
