Mt Ngauruhoe

Well, despite the signs of spring in Cornwall Park, it is really still winter, so off for a skiing trip we went.
It was a good drive down to Mt Ruapehu, with a little picnic on the way. We were staying in the Whakapapa village and after several room changes settled into our hotel room, with a rather spectacular view.
We managed two days skiing this time and moved out of my comfort zone by going onto the lower mountain, very scared, fell a few times, legs shaking, a little bit of screaming, and some lovely mulled wine at the end of the day.
Next year we hope to try our luck down on the South Island.
