This week a small group of people went down to Mt Ruapehu to ski. We stayed at a luxury lodge called Mountain Heights Lodge. We were served breakfast and dinner. The breakfast was all optional and the food on offer was, Eggs, bacon, beans and toast. For dinner there were three courses. First course, the best pumpkin soup in the world, it’s so good that I now like pumpkin. Second course, Lasagne and coleslaw also delicious. Then the third course or dessert, two types of Ice cream, boysenberry and vanilla with chocolate and caramel sauces, sprinkles, Miss Davis’ birthday cake and a fruit salad.

The beds had electric blankets to keep you warm in the night but there were also lots of heaters. We snuggled up tight in the first night but we didn’t get to sleep until midnight or so. The second night we all fell asleep quite quickly because of how tired we were after a full day of skiing. During the second day it was too stormy to ski so we went to some hot pools at Taupo DeBretts then we watched a dam open to the Aratiatia rapids. We then got on a ferry that took us through the waikato river to Huka falls.
For dinner on the way there and the way home we had MACCAS (McDonalds) The lodge was a luxury lodge so we couldn't eat in the bedrooms.
Hi Ingrid It's Millie here. I like how you stayed warm with the electric blankets. I seems like you had a lot of fun.
