The first day of semester 2 is also one of the coldest days this month. From our studio we could see the snow capped mountain tops in the distance. Last year’s winter did not have much snow and we decided on the spur of the moment to drive up to Mount Barrow. Friends around got excited too and we ended up with seven people going on this road trip.

[newline]We did not own a four wheel drive or snow chains and could only venture up half way to the top. Even at this height, there was plenty of snow on the ground. We were so close to the summit yet so far. There was a nice view over all the forests and we could see the Bass Strait in the distance. We made a snowman and threw snowballs at each other. Oh well, typical stuff to do if you’re from the tropics. The sun was setting and we quickly made our way down.
