Strike Day

Jack's school was on strike to day so Daddy looked after him while doing his emails! Thanks to WiFi in lots of places (McDonald for example - though touch screens do not work very well when eating in McDonalds).


This is a photo of Jack on the beach enjoying himself,


Jack trying out the water temperature. Still a bit cold!

Jack looking a little bit like Granddad, holding his pants up not to get them wet!!!!


Daddy brought Jack to the toy shop......


Jack choosing and Daddy saying no.


More choices.....

GPS log traces

Here are my GPS traces from the weekend. First one is a short ski trace and the second one is a longer snowboarding trace. Max speed on the GPS said 56kph but in the software it says 44kph, go figure :) I'm just learning so will have it figured out by the end of the day, hopefully.

[EDIT] Figured that is all down to how the speed data is averaged (over 1 second, 10 seconds etc....) - 56kph is one second average and 44kph is 15 second average.






A wet and misty weekend

It was a wet and misty weekend up in the mountains so we went out for a bit of skiing between the clouds and rain. No sun though. So the photos this week are taken inside.
Breakfast in bed.


Playing in the pen.


Both having fun!
