Whistler

We got back from a 5 day holiday at Whistler. Unfortunately, I kept forgetting to take my camera along when we walked through the village. People watching was the best but unfortunately I didn't get any photos of the street entertainment.

The weather was nice the first 2 days but not so nice the last 2. There was lots of rain and it was cold the last 2 days. The only picture I took was the one above. It was really nice to have a change of scenery though.

We still had a nice family time. The boys did lots of mountain biking and a bit of shopping. All of the kids did lots of swimming every day.

We stayed in a 2 bedroom townhouse. We were fairly crowded as there was 6 of us plus 1 of the kids friends and our 2 schnauzers. We had a lot of forced togetherness, which was great. At home we are always going in all sorts of directions and it was just nice to be together. We played some Cranium, lots of Dutch Blitz and Uno.

Fabulous Sunset at Green Lake


Since I didn't get too many pictures I thought I'd show you some of our pictures from last years holiday when we went to a friends cabin in the Cariboo Region of British Columbia (Green Lake or often referred to as 70 Mile House). This was approximately a 4 hour drive from our home.


The girls sitting on the dock having a quiet moment.

Kia loved being up at Green Lake but wouldn't go near the lake. She hates getting wet.

Jasper loves to be near dad and the kids who are swimming here at dusk; so, he's getting as close as he dares. He did actually jump in once but immediately regretted it and had to be rescued.

All in all we thank God for safe travel, no injuries while mountain biking, and wonderful scenery to enjoy while holidaying.
