snow snow and skating



Sunday 20th
Today we picked up our camper van and left Christchurch (after a huge breaky at Sophie’s even better than dinner) we didn’t need lunch and had to force dinner!
We headed south to Lake Tekapo.. A scenic glacial lake with a very famous church right on the banks of the lake. No arguing here and Christian denomination takes turns at using it. Imagine sitting in the pews praising God looking over His wonder of a lake and snow capped mountain peaks.
Following dinner we went ice-skating, Whilst Jeremy Tom and I held onto the rails I looked up to see Callum step onto the ice and promptly skate perfectly! The owners thought he had done it before. Next thing we know is he has a hockey stick on his hand shooting pucks at the goal! Not a sport I like! Anyway he preferred Ice dancing so look out Torville and Dean.! He is not so fast so Steven Bradbury’s gold is ok! After a little while Tom had a stick in his hand as well and they took turns shooting at goal…………….where re the next Winter Olympics?? There are also thermal outdoor pools here buy we will have to leave them for another day.
