Lake Poorarecup Skiing

Easter Weekend is a 4-day holiday in Australia - Good Friday + Monday off so people can recover from sugar highs on Sunday. We headed south to Lake Poorrarecup for a weekend of skiing and playing in the sun with a local water ski club.

We set up camp at Lake Poorrarecup in Western Australia last night. We were welcomed by a work crew ready to help with the tent pitching rather than sit around in chairs and jeer, which they had admitted to doing in many other instances.

Skiing was ok- the hangover from drinking and campfire songs was not helpful to get up early for the flat water.



Lake Poorrarecup is about three times the area of Snyder's Lake. This encourages up to 10 boats running around making wakes, so it made me miss home, but it was still fun to get out of the house/office and just enjoy the outside. Joey even went tubing! It was a bit rough for him to kneeboard, but he had lots of fun playing in the water pushing Ryan around.
