Whistler while you work

Sunset over bespin

And the saga continues.

The BJBs took on canada this time. A first for me. I hadnt been to visit our neighbors to the north, and it was time. Air Canada. Half french, half english, all love. Flight was a breeze, plane was nice and new. They even had some nice nerdy amenities for us..


They had USB for a nerdy charge in midair



Anyway so we land, eat and wake up the next day to find out that whistler is MASSIVE. Some say Jungle is massive, but whistler really is massive. Since it was the baller trip of the season, we stayed in Le Chamois hotel. It sits at the base of Blackcomb, and has a sweet view of the mountain. Our room was equipped with a kitchenette, and an honest to god hot tub in the middle of the room. Sweetmix. Internet was a bit scarce though. who cares.



The view from Le Chamois


Weatherwise, we had a nice set of days that varied. The first day we had a mix of clouds with some breaks. It wasnt really all that cold either. probably around 26 at the base. We rode blackcomb on thursday. What's cool was they had a bubble that would go over the whole chair to protect you from the wind/weather. Even though it wasnt bad at all, we had to bust it out.

The mountain is big. It's real big. and really pretty. I ended up inheriting a photo editor, who told me precisely what to take pictures of. (I'm glad she did, cause I wasnt thinking picture time)



ooo0oO0hh! clouds! and mountain!



My photo editor







More mountain. More taste.


Boom. One more day down. Valenteezmeez!
