Melbourne Holiday 2018 (Day 6, Part 2)

Super excited to be at Mt Buller.  Will let the pics do the talking...

With Mt Buller Cut-Out Stand 

One of the Toboggan areas

Making a Snow Angel! 

The snow was so fine.  Made me think of eating Ice Kacang  

Elyssa playing with a snow ball

Yup, that's hubby at the backgound building his snowman.  Building snowman is hard work! After a while, he found his snow jacket too thick so ended up wearing just a sweater and a tshirt. 

Hard at work 

As for me, I was just happy to sit on the snow. 

Gave up building my snowman

Hubby finally completed his snowman!

Time for a family pic  :-) 

Erin with her daddy 

And of course Mr Snowman...complete with beanie, specs, scarf and some leaves! 

Elyssa with a HUGGE snowball!  It was heavy! 

Headed for lunch after that. And it started snowing. Whee heeeee!!!!! Small specks only but we were all grinning away.

Catching falling snow flakes

Can't quite see from the photo tho

For lunch, I somehow imagined myself sipping on a hot latte and eating a Western meal, whilst overlooking the snow capped moutains of Mt Buller.  But at where we were, the first signs we saw were " Asian food court 100m ahead.  Hot meals".  Hmmm...sounds alright too.

My Won Ton Noodles

Oh gosh.  It was surprisingly goooooood!  

We had fried noodles (lousy) and fish& chips too (decent)

More snow play after lunch. Actually, we didn't want to lug our bulky toboggans so we took the Shuttle bus back to the car park. Found out there's another (nicer) toboggan area near the car park

Isn't this place gorgeous??!!

After a gazillions times of going down and up, we placed the toboggans back in the car.  And off we went for a walk.  Decided to take the Ski Lift (AUD 20 per person for a return trip).

One of the many Ski Lifts 

All strapped in

Hubby's actually afraid of heights.  Look at his expression! haha.

OMG, it was AMAZING!!!

Definitely my favourite part of the trip.  I kept on squealing "OMG...this is Amazing!!!"

At the top 

Ok, this was closer to what I envisioned earlier.

Had our hot chocs and coffee at this lovely cafe  :-) 

When we took the Ski Lift down, it was snowing again.  OMG..... super happy!!!!

We left Mt Buller around 3.30pm. Wish we could stay longer but still had to drive back to Creswick. Luckily it stopped snowing when we were going downhill and we didn't have to use our snowchains.
Dropped off our rented gear and had to start the long drive back.

KFC on the way back. 

Back at Sebel Creswick 

Aaahhhhh.......warm hugs after a long day in the snow. Just lovely!
