Just do it! Just do it!
02 Feb 2009

Global Financial Crisis, Recession, Depression, cut-backs, layoffs, retrenchment, unemployment, low dollar, strong Euro...there seems to be more and more reasons these days not to travel overseas and chase snow.

But just think about what you'll be missing by not heading overseas this year - all the pow, park and pipe you just can't get in the southern hemisphere. Like the Mastercard ad: priceless!

Indy 5000 2 - Credit: The Mountain Weekly, www.themountainweekly.net An Alaska Heli Experience
