Snow way

Text written in: English

Back to work. Using my trusty work vehicle, it's a few hours to Cooma. Funnily enough, I was here only last week hiring my snowboard for my holidays!

Yes, that's right. Despite the logistical foolishness, I drove back from here to Sydney, re-packed for work then drove back.

Anyway, Cooma is a decent town. Biggest thing here is the Snowy Hydro scheme, where they use snow melt and rivers and stuff to make electricity via big turbines. I think. Didn't get to check it out.

So anyway, just when I thought I was clear of the snow, guess what? See the attached pic. That's my car, the black one. We were a little late for work that morning. But the topper was when Charles (who drives the white car) came out of his room and said "Look, my car's white!"

Anyway, one week here per the normal mission outline, then off to South Australia for the first time.
