Ski Trip

On Tuesday night I started packing for our school trip I packed my swimmers some worm clothes because we were going to go to Mt Ruapehu.
The next morning we got up early to do all the jobs around the house. Then we went to the school and the mini bus was waiting for us. The mini bus had 13 seats and tinted windows .At 8:30 we were off down the road and heading to Taumaramui.

A few hours later we were by Taumaramui and we stopped to buy some snacks.
One hour later we were by the lodge and unpacking.
After we had unpacked we did some activities like archery and motorbike riding.
The motorbikes were little 100cc power chief quads. They were really fun.
That night we went to town for dinner. I just had a cheeseburger and fries.
The next morning we got up at 6:00 because we were having dinner at 7:00.
After breakfast we put all our gloves and other things for up on the mountain. Then we were off going up the mountain.
When we got up to Whakapapa we got our passes then we went down the lift to Happy Valley.
Then when everybody was down we got our ski pants and our ski jacket and our ski boots and skis.
Soon we all had our ski boots and skis on. Then we started to learn to ski.
All that day we stayed in Happy Valley getting better and better. At 4:00 we stared heading for some hot pools.
After we had been at the hot pools we went to a takeaway place in Ohakune After dinner we went back to the lodge at 9:00.
Early the next morning we got up at the same time and we packed all our stuff in the van because we were going home after half a day of skiing.
When we were up at Happy Valley we got all our gear and warmed up in Happy Valley. Then we went to the upper mountain.
The lifts that we went on were called the T-Bars and the chair lifts.
That afternoon we went home. It was very long drive.
Overall I think it was a really cool trip.
