Boston/Stowe (20th February 2015) - Day 9

Last day of skiing! 

Location: Stowe, VT, USA
Weather: Sunny/Cloud Patches
Temp: -8°C

So let's start off by saying that I completely forgot to do this post last night, so I apologise if I forget some stuff! 

Started the day off with some breakfast, we headed to a small bagel place called "The Bagel" funny that! I had a egg and bacon bagel which was decent enough although wasn't anything special. 

After breakfast we headed to the mountains, as my dad had a bad chest he didn't want to make it worse by doing exercise in the cold so we took the car and got dropped off! (woohoo!) 
Even though I said the temperature at the start was around -8°C it started of at around -20°C, so yeah a tad cold. But it did manage to warm up a little thought the day! 

Snow conditions were good on spruce said but not as good on the other. Nice powdery and groomed in some places in spruse side, hard packed and ice on the other. But hey I managed to get that powder flying on Srpuce side! 


We went for food in a placed called "The Phoenix" looked like a house from the outside but super fancy gastro style in the inside. Nice food and a nice atmosphere, it was about 1minure away from the hotel which is great too cause it gets crazy cold when the sun goes down! 

As I said I forgot to write this last night so I'm actually writing it in the car on the way back to Boston! 

Untill tomorrow!

Boston/Stowe (14th February 2015) - Day 3

Today we set off for Stowe! Location: Boston, Massachusetts  Weather: Sunny/Cloudy  Temp: -12°  We had the afternoon left in Boston yesterday which we spent most of it in bars (I'm not complaining). Since there is a 5 hour time difference sleeping was a little odd, managed to wake up at 3am and then managed to get up at 6:30am which is around 11:30am in the UK. So kind of fits my sleeping pattern right down to a tee!  I managed to get up just as the sun was rising! Being me i managed to take a few snaps (few being lots) After I finished taking loads of photos we went down for a coffee (after a shower of course) thats where i managed to finish off the blog post that i was suppose to send out last night. We didn't hang around in the hotel for long, before I knew it we were out the door and back to the airport to get the rental car. We managed to get a Ford ...

Off to Kauai in Hawaii today!  Well My sleep was pretty amazing, air con that actually works and a bed that didn't suck! Wonderfullll! Anyway woke up about 8 ish this morning, had a quick sunbath by the pool before going down for a feast of a breakfast! (was pretty awesome) After some filling breakfast we headed off to the airport, (for a world famous airport it really wasn't they impressive) yeah i admit the place was HUGE but inside it has nothing to do! (kinda like the Tardis but the other way round,yeah.) The flight was about 5 hours long, so wasn't as bad as the trip from Heathrow to LAX but still kinda bored! All i can say is thank god i bought mine craft on my mac, oh and my iPod (lifesaver!) Arriving at Kauai airport was weird, the place is so chilled out! The whole airport was made of wood!!! WOOD!! So yeah they was cool.  After we grabbed our bags and other rubbish we brought along with us we went to pic up our rental car, we have a Chrysler Miniva...

Its ski time 2 (This time i mean it) Location: Stowe, Vermont  Weather: Sunny/Cloudy Temp: -10°C  Im feeling much better (thank you for asking), although I'm writing this late at night when I'm tired and have to get up early again for more skiing action so i apologies in advance if this post seems a little rubbish!  The weather was pretty much perfect, i mean yeah the starting temp was around -22 but it warmed up! Oh i forgot breakfast! i had leftover pizza from last night. (Super interesting i know) Anyway, the snow was awesome although there was a few hard packed and powdery patches around but nothing you can't get your edges into!  We didn't spend too long on the mountain as i've managed to pass on my germy germs onto my parents, (best son ever!) We got a few hours in bare in mind that this was my first day so we all had to get our rhythm back! And yeah it didn't take long, one easy run and I'm back in the zone (Insert shade...
