TRIP TO THE SNOW


 * This is writen a bit like a story.**

We started the day like any other. Except Mum said “are you ready to go.” My brother and I looked at each other. “Where are we going mum?” we said. “To the snow” she replied. We had been asking to go to the snow for weeks; especially my brother and now we finally got to go. We chucked on some warm clothes, put some food together and packed everything into the car. We put all the stuff into the back and hopped into the car, and then off we went. It took a good hour and a half to get up to Bogong but we had our gameboys, the radio and a good view through the mountains. When we finally got there we went to a place Mum and Dad had once been to before. I spotted a great patch of snow. After that we sat down, unpacked the picnic and had a bite to eat. Rolls and cakes were on the menu and they tasted great. When we were done we grabbed the board, some gloves and some plastic sheets out of the car and went up to our little patch off snow. I was the first to get there and I had a quick search around for a good place to use the board. Then the others came up and we started a snowball fight until it seemed more fun just to slide around. Dad was the first to try the plastic on the snow, and because it wasn’t flat he went whoosh into the bushes. Then Mum decided to try the board. She flucked a massive run from right at the top to the bottom. Lucky her. The rest of us didn’t think she could do it again and we were right, she couldn’t. After that we got a track set up and had a bit of fun on that. Even though none of us had snowboarded before we weren’t too bad. I was clearly the best though. Dad and I kept going on the track while Mum and Ryan made some snowmen. By this time it was getting late and I had master the snowboard track. So I built a snowman while Ryan finished his and Mum and Dad went for a coffee. Everyone started packing up while I decapitated the snowmen. All except Ryan’s one. When we all got back to the car, we packed up and headed back home after a big day at the snow. It took a while to get home but overall it was a great day.
