Jimmy Kimmel now. Anyone else concerned about this?

@ChrisC let me know when you’ll be heading to this portion of the globe. I’ll try to meet you for some shared chairs. I’m committed to a Europe hiking trip next September though. October at Ruapehu sounds good.

Just reading this report again. Fantastic pics of the town and terrain. You men are also photogenic specimens too. Good looking blokes with big genuine smiles that have clearly not been put on for the camera. Isn’t it a good feeling when you have genuine fun?

I think I can realistically add 8 new destinations this coming winter. That will get me to 90. I’m going to take a wild guess that may be very inaccurate but I’m tipping there wouldn’t be too many life long Brisbane residents with 90 ski hills on their resume. *It doesn’t matter that they are...

🤣🤣🤣

Interesting talk about altitude sickness. I’ve only stayed as high as Snowmass but have been there a few times. I’ve never had one hint of it. Nor has any of my family. And we live at sea level. We’ve always had time in SLC prior though.

I’ll have a car and will ski at Shiga Kogen and Myoko/Madarao areas.

They look interesting but are generally low elevation. No issue in a ‘normal winter’ but not ideal in a warm winter.

@snowave @jimk You people that reside close to mountains and proper winter are living a fantastic dream. Don’t take it for granted! I’ll be in Japan (skiing Nagano area) for 12 days at the end of January/start of February and skiing in Europe (likely France given my wife’s preferences) in late...

Lack of green veg. Too much ham and cheese and bread.

That looks wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

Food looks lovely - particularly the venison. And those beans would be in grave danger if I was in attendance.

I have a difficult time in Europe. My brain struggles that there is no green on that schnitzel plate.

The hotel looks great but ultimately out of my tight arse league. Have you found the food to be mainly German based or Italian or a mix? When we stayed in Arabba just prior to Covid the language spoken at the hotel was Italian and the food had a distinct Italian bent. There is a suggestion that...

I’ve seen the videos too but generally they are not at all aggressive. I’ve certainly never experienced any issues with them.

I plan to do just that next year. It looks beautiful. That’s Alpe Di Siusi? And you got the gondola up from Ortesei? Did you hire the bikes at the bottom of the gondola?

I played at Mount Coolum course today. It’s not St Andrews but it is scenic in it’s own way. Kangaroos in the foreground.

I’m noting the warm clothing. It’s T shirt weather in the middle of the day in the valley?
