Raindrops are falling on my head? Wait...Its snow!

img_5898.jpgAs we walked out of the hotel at about 6:30 we clearly realized that it was not only ice-cold but raining as well. But a little rain does not scare the Orange team. "Ons skrik vir niks!" So we decided to face the Giant!

Waking up at 6:00 this morning we, the Orange team, Marisa to be more specific decided that we would all go climb the mountain in our town. After realizing that it was really cold and raining we still decided to head out to the mountain.img_5881.jpg

Getting to the mountain, complaining non-stop and getting soaked we started to climb the 500+ stairs. (603 to be exact, according to Sulene) As we got to the top of the stairs we were greeted by an ice-cold wind, this Giant suddenly got a lot bigger. Biting the bullet was no longer an option so we decided to rather return to our warm hotel rooms. "Bring my terug na my hotel kamer, daar waar my bed warm is. Waar-my-bed-warm-is"

As always Paul just had to go play outside, doing some pushups, running around like a mad man and building a snowman he was really entertaining all the passing Chinese.
