Whistler

We just got back from a fun 4 day weekend in Whistler. Its been a few years since I had been up there (and it was Matt's first trip) and I forgot how much fun it is! We went up with Matt's friend Matt Wiggins and his girlfriend Stacy, and also friends Andrea, Frank, and Stacy's brother Steven.

I had a cold most of the trip which was a bummer, but we still got up for some snowboarding saturday and monday, and the snow was great. We even rode the downhill run on Whistler which will be for the winter Olympics next year. The new "Peak to Peak" gondola was open, and we tried that out taking us over to Blackcomb, it was crazy how high up in the air you are!

The 2 days we weren't snowboarding, we did lots of walking around, shopping, eating, trying out the local beers, and just hanging out. Matt and the gang even took some time Sunday and tried out the tube park. =) It was a much needed relaxing weekend away, and already can't wait for the next one.
