Light cloud, roast, guests, drinks

Light cloud in the morning, so out we go again to ski some more :)
Skied all over the Summit and Ruined Castle, making the most out of the good snow and good visibility, with real improvement seen in my style, especially down Cabbage Patch, where I was skiing like a CHAMPION!

(if I do say so myself) :)

Tonight's meal was supposed to be a night out in the village, but we decided that there was no need, as we had more than enough food (hence the leftovers the previous night). So tonight turned into Roast and drinkies night.
Chris C found that he had met a few people he knew from Perth on the slopes, so they came to the lodge for pre-dinner drinks, then Chris S had invited some friends to dinner and post-dinner drinks, so it was a full lodge that night :) Three roasts were cooked on the new Barbecue (with roasting hood) and everyone going up the chairlift in the afternoon was yelling out comments about how they wanted to come for dinner :)

The friends Chris S had invited were Craig and Cindi who worked on the mountain and were involved in running the resort, so we had a good chat about the marketing opportunities in the mountain and how they needs to improve things :) I think we gave them a bit of a grilling :) but then we got on to stories about falling on the slopes and broke the ice a bit, no pun intended. It was interesting to hear about the Freestyle MotorX jumping that they had a few nights earlier. We had wondered why they had painted a big combined Target roundell and World Industries devil-boy logo on the snow (10 meters across), but it turns out that World Industries, who were sponsoring the MotorX action, had just done a huge launch through Target and Craig was keen to show them how this sort of event could be turned into a revenue. Pretty interesting stuff actually. We also got the skinny on the plans to replace the playground and Lakeside Pomas with a chair, which is welcome news for me :) I hate the damn pomas :)
