Xmas holiday pics 2008

[Pumba]

Ok I kn this is a litte "gay" but thought some might be interested. I am over here in Tacoma, Seattle, in the USA to spend xmas with the sister and her new husband. JUst took some photos out side.

Its about 18 degrees Fahrenheit (which I beleave is well below Zero).

This is great but would kill for th 24 degrees Celsius I came from

Enjoy!!!!

Cool pic there Carl but i would rather be here as well. Looks like you might get a white christmas. Now that would be something i would like to see in my lifetime.

Nice pics. Great for an hour or two then you get cold and go inside.
At least you will get a white christmas:woohoo:

[Trudes]

Cool!!! (Or is that cold??) I'll try and remember to take a picture of us at Mahia beach on Xmas day and post it here for you!!:cool:

And hey, what's with the sheep Pumba and Busa Petes????

Since when has the cold bothered you eh? I can still remember clearly someone wearing shorts and jandals at the Turangi Gathering this year in Mid June! :cold:

Have fun and don't fall for a lass over there - We would miss you to much on the ATNR..!

I'm pleased we went there in summer.

Fahrenheit, take off 32, divide by 1.8 and you have Celsius.

18F -32 = -14, -14/1.8 = -7.8 degrees C

Yep, below zero.

Hmmm, board shorts, bikinis, sunshine and sand. All but a faint memory at this stage. As for the sheep, I have been meaning to change that for a while, but best you ask Mrs Busa Pete cause I really dont have a clue.

I tried the jandals but it is past that point still ok for shorts though.

18F -32 = -14, -14/1.8 = -7.8 degrees C

Yep, below zero.

I think I would have been better off not knowing that:blink:




Next year speedos and bare feet.

Happy Xmas in the snow

Trust me, no body even wants to start imagining me in speedo:oi-grr:

A quick update, weather has been all over the place in the last few days with a total of about 8-9 inches of snow falling, then we had a few days of fine weather, today the snow/sleat/freezzing rain rolled in turning the roads that have not been graded have turned into goat track but hopefully we have seen the last of the bad weather and see a bit more of the countryside.

Have a Merry Xmas all I hope you had a good day, I look forward to mine tomorrow.

[ajturbo]

any excuse not to race at taupo eh!

[Slingshot]

Awesome photos, it looks like you're in the middle of a nuclear winter...or at least what i imagine a nuclear winter would look like :)

[racerhead]

Nice pics, Im here in ireland and its about 6 degrees outside and would prefer either snow or sun not this in the middle crap. Ah well Ill be in NZ soon enough:eek:

[Pumba]

Well back in NZ now and thank fuck for that. I missed the sun.

Things got better in the last week it just rained and washed all the snow away so at least we could move around without fear of sliding, or slipping on your arse when you hopped out of the car.

But on the way to the airport yesterday morning we went through a nice heavy snow flurry which a nice way to end the trip.
