Short update

This is mostly an addendum to the last post.

The night we went to the bobsled we were all finished by about 7:30. Then there was a huge rush of people trying to get on buses and the gondola back down to the village. Cassie and I got separated from the rest of the group and decided it would be much faster to walk down. So that's what we did. Actually we jogged down the mountain and that girl can move! It took us about 7-8 minutes to get down. We were running down the village way ski run at night with no light, and it was a TON of fun! The company I kept while doing it also helped lol.

The next day I went skiing. Wow! Whistler is an amazing mountain. I have a ton of pictures to show and I will definitely write about my day when I get the chance. All I have to say now is, I could do laps on Spanky's Ladder all day and be completely satisfied, and that was only one run on the Blackcomb mountain!

After that day I was invited out to dinner by Greg Cooke from the louise patrol. We all chipped in for groceries and had a nice home cooked meal which was very welcome. We also watched the couples ice dance competition. I'm not much for figure skating but wow did the Canadians put on a show! Definitely earned the gold! I have to admit I did enjoy the American couples choice of music from the phantom of the opera, but I have a soft spot for that score. I love it. After all that I had a sudden urge to go watch The Cutting Edge again.

Toe pick!!
