'snow business
Okay, I learned a REALLY valuable lesson this week. DON'T knit something with a chart on a bus. I barely got any of "Argyle" done, because I kept feeling slightly queasy (although that could have been the steady diet of PG-rated romantic comedies....) and putting it down. But the bit I *have* got done is lovely. Photos when I am halfway through a row and can spread it out to show you lot how lovely the textured pattern is.
And then we got into the cave. I used to do a lot of caving as a kid, right up until my mother:a. saw photos of me in a squeeze
b. heard about the infamous foul air incident (we got trapped and couldn't find our way out...nothing to do with farting!)
I would love to live in a cave. Actually, I'd settle for this cave, with this as the master bedroom...
Can you see the shawl attached to the column? I didn't have my tripod, so I had to use the flash. Grrr.

Next day, we went up the chairlift, which is always fun. It's so quiet, and peaceful, and you can look over the side for critter tracks, and little rivers, and all sorts of things. I submit these pictures for people who think we Aussies don't get snow. And it's not even winter yet!

All in all, a very good excursion :-) Look at that sky! And the footprints on the snow ARE mine, yes.
Be nice to your mother this weekend. Have a good one!

Ooooooooh. We certainly don't get snow. I'm jealous. And I've never been in a cave like that. I'm impressed that you even attempted chart knitting on a bus, who cares how it went?
But I'm sure it will be nice to get more of it done.
Lol, snow in Australia just seems so wrong. I know it's such a huge and varied country but I still have misconceptions about it. The tousism advert on tv here for Aus at the moment is amazing, it made me want to book flights there and then. Maybe in a few years.....
Anyhoo, you're brave for knitting Argyle on the bus but I'm glad you've started it.
What a fantastic trip, it all looks stunning. Teachers like you rock big time for giving up your time for trips.
that is so beautiful.... what an amazing image, aurora.
you lucky snow person.... oh snow. one day....
