On thursday night, the 16th of september, a good couple of weeks in to spring, it snowed big time up on top of Mount wellington. On the friday morning, the mountain looked amazing, and so Lucy, Claire and myself decided that a mountain adventure was required the following day. Saturday morning comes and we head up the mountain, with hopes that we might get to the top. Alas, the rangers do not let cars drive past the springs. We park and hop out to start out snowy adventure by foot. We start heading up the pinnacle track, chatting away, stopping to take photos and play in the snow. And this is what happened...
I played with my camera a little because the snow looked awesome.
Pretty!
We hijacked a little kids snowman, which even had a carrot nose!
And yes, we waited until the family had left their snowman alone before hijacking it.
Claire was silly for the camera...
..the snow looked pretty..
Lucy declared her love for me with snow..
I wore my awesome gumboots, and Claire showed the world her crazy stripy thermals and socks!
...we took self timer photos...and I fell down a hole running back to get in the photo!
..And we played with the self timer again...
..and on the way back down the mountain to the car we came across two GIANT snowballs, so obviously had to pose with them!!
All in all it was a succesful Mt Wellington snowy adventure. And to top it off when we got down the mountain we went to the food store, in South Hobart for a DELICIOUS lunch!!!
