Snowboarding = pain

Well we figured, when in Rome.... so we've taken up Snowboarding. An innocent sounding sport where one travels down a mountain, at speed, with both feet connected to (that is, tightly strapped to) a plank of wood (or whatever Snowboards are made of). Ok, so maybe it doesn't sound so innocent. Well it isn't innocent, it is painful yet strangely addictive. I'm not sure why though, it's expensive, it's hard, it's cold, you fall over. But we'll be back up that mountain!

I (Lachie) face planted/nose dived/ate poo as they say.... I was bleeding, and proud of it. I haven't even mentioned the muscular pain that one experiences after 'riding' for a day.. any way.. here's a couple pics.


A healthy breaky to start the day.


The mountain.


The aftermath.
