11 DAYS OF LUXURY IN BOULDERING PARADISE!!!

Ok, so here i am trying to drum up some support for a whirlwind tour of castle hill. i am currently going to be over there from May 2nd to May 13th, with one other person. considering it will only be for a short period of time, we are very keen to stay in Castle Hill Village.

Rooms are around the $100 mark per night, for up to 4 people. Now, if my math is correct, and i'm pretty sure it is, for $25 a night, you too can avoid the pitfalls of of the tent life in the bitter cold, boiling noodles on a trangia, while trying to find those elusive thermals half way through the nite as your verge on hypothermia. But you make it through the night, only to find Keas have chewed through your tent, thus forcing a hurricane of frozen wind straight on you. Oh, and they've also ravaged you Tevas to a point where they should be thrown into the fire in order to extract some form of warmth.

Now imagine, just for a moment, coming home from bouldering everyday to lay back on a couch, flick the TV on, and ask me to grab you a beer from the fridge too, while i'm up. A nice steak and salad for dinner, or perhaps pasta with some garlick bread cooked to crispy perfection in the oven. Oh, i see your tired now, well, you better have a quick HOT shower to loosen up, retire to a nice, warm, soft bed, and maybe cast your gaze over a few more pages of 'The DaVinci Code' before flicking the lamp off and drifting into dreams of things so beautiful there are no words to describe them.

All this, and more, can be yours for as little as $25(ish) a day!
