The Mine :)

After passing the mine on the hill every day for two months i finally made a trip up to it! :D it was well worth it!! I went with Jan and Annalena and we had a bit of a snow ball fight on the way up as it snowed the whole day none stop the day before! The mine was really cool inside, it was all wooden and still had the old tracks for transporting the coal. There was lots of stairs up to the top of the mine, and they took you to the old locker rooms and bathroom! The entrance inside the mine was completely covered with ice and there was also random sections of ice in the mine aswell! It was really dark inside and i was a bit silly and forgot my head torch and i walked right into a low door frame.. people must of been a lot smaller than me back then! On the way back down from the mine, we sledged using small bum sledges!! This was a bit sore as it was rocks underneath but totally worth it!! It only took a few minutes to get down but took a while to walk up!! :D on our way back to the barracks there was people out on snow scooters.. i was so jealous, i really want to have a go on one before i leave!!!
