Whistler
Well I've left Vancouver. It was so good to catch up with Shannon two nights in a row after not seeing the girl for almost 6 years. I can't believe it has been that long.
After getting eaten by bed bugs on my first night at the hotel in Vancouver (eww!), I managed to get my room changed and the consumption of my blood seemed to have stopped. The hotel were strangely not particularly apologetic about the whole thing but I'm out of there and just waiting till I can check in to my hotel in Whistler (hopefully no bedbugs here).
It's snowing outside and while probably not a particularly heavy snowfall here by their standards it's heavier than I've ever seen it snow and it's just falling softly - none of that crappy blow you to the ground and sandblast the skin off your face snow storms we have at Hotham and Buller.
I'm so excited to get out onto the slopes... just need to buy myself a stomp pad (can't believe I forgot to pick one up when I bought my board) and a pair of wrist guards because I left mine at home.
The drive up here was amazing - the sea to ski highway is rivalling the great ocean road in the top picturesque drive stakes. Anyway time is running out and I should see if I can get into this room yet.
