After that we stopped at Taihape for lunch and had a photo taken at the gum boot and our next photo stop was Oakune's carrot. We arrived at Raurimu school at about 4pm after getting our ski boots and skis. We unpacked, had our tea and watched part of a movie.
On Monday we went to Happy Valley for our skiing lesson. It rained and sleeted but we all persevered and learnt to ski. On the evening we went to the rock wall and returned back at our accommodation really tired.
Tuesday soon came around. We all had very tired and sore legs but that didn't stop us. The day was much brighter and not as cold. We arrived at Happy Valley at about 9.30 and got straight into skiing. On the evening we went to see some glow worms.
Wednesday we were split into groups and some of us went to the Rock Gardens whilst others stayed in Happy Valley. We then went to the Hot Pools and returned to Raurimu for 6.30.
Thursday our last skiing day dawned bright and clear. We had our breakfast and arrived at Ruapehu at 9.30. We spilt into our groups and went off skiing.
Happy Valley.
Friday was our last day. We cleaned our accommodation and went back to school, arriving at 3.30.
you are very lucky but cold
