Hello from Whistler!

Hello Hello!

My first stop was in Vancouver, and we spent the 1st day stocking up on warm clothes.  Layering up really helps!

This photo was taken from Whistler Peak, and what an awesome view.  Unfortunately I am not a good skier, and I slammed my head into the hard snow on the 1st day.  If the instructor was as patient as the guy we got on the 2nd day, I would probably have skied down the mountain, even once!  Instead I spent 2 days seeing the doctors to make sure that I was ok.  My neck was stiff but after one session of physio I have my range of motion back.

Anyway, the view was breath taking. the peak to peak was even more impressive. it was awesome.

On the 1st day we arrived we saw the girls in mini skirts, at -7 degrees Celsius... brave girls haha.  In some ways Whistler is a crazy place.  And there are Australians EVERYWHERE!  It might be because they want to get away from the heat we currently have back home.

I hope that next time I can enjoy it more, the snow was amazing!  I have to get my friend to teach me how to ski.  We also joined Club Intrawest so there are plenty more opportunities for skiing so need to get used to the cold!

My nose was running non stop so it's very annoying - and you don't know whether you are sick or hayfever?  I ended up getting my nose covered and it looks ok.  Should have realised that more sooner.

Overall, I am very conservative, so didn't do too much!  PS: was thinking about all these physical activities that we are doing would make me lose some fat, haha
