Whistler was the site of the 2010 Winter Olympics and is (by all accounts, because I haven't been there yet) one of the top skiing destinations in North America. It also has the longest unsupported cable car ride in the world, from the top of one mountain to the next...which they did...in a cable car with a glass floor! I'm glad I stayed in the safe haven of Vancouver for that one.
They had a great day, and Meg came back claiming that next year she's going to go to ski school. In further discussion, I found out the main reason was the hot chocolate that they get during breaks and lunch. She's a smart one.
Getting ready to hit the slopes.
And what slopes they are! If I could ski I'd be even more excited.
Up at the top.
Daredevils. Once they pass that tower behind them it's 3km to the next.
And you can see down.
Mid-span.
Phew - safe at Blackcomb, the twin mountain of Whistler peak.
More fine powder.
And what better apres-ski snack than ice cream? This might even beat hot chocolate.
