Well of late we have been getting a bit of proper Winter weather through and this has meant some good snow to have adventures in. We even had enough snow fall low enough in mid July for the boys to build and play in our backyard. That’s pretty good considering we are only at 200m above sea level here.

Once the weekend rolled around we decided to head for the hills to find more snow. We picked Lake Lyndon as a good place to go, not to far away and plenty of snow around. We had a play along the lake front for a start and then found a great slope around the corner to go sledding down.

Not quite steep enough for great sledding

The boys loved the sledding adventures both down the hill and behind the truck, check out the videos below

It was a great way to spend the day only 30mins from home.
