Welcome to Whistler-Blackcomb, where all it does is snow.....

Well, as you may have guessed by my lack of posts, the last 2 weeks have been pretty hectic. Let me sum up in a nutshell as best as I can:
     -The trip on The Canadian was pretty awesome, great sights, particularly on the last day as we travelled through the Rockies.
     -2 nights in Vancouver provided a time to mix with some great people and make some fantastic friends.
     -Arrival and the subsequent 16 days have been nothing short of spectacular. Rain promptly turned into snow and Whistler mountian opened just under 2 weeks earlier than planned. There is already more snow base now than there was at any time last season! Over 500cm of snow has fallen so far in November, the most EVER!
     -8th day in a row of skiing done as of today. Snow is amazing, as stated earlier.

Whistler is a fantastic town, the people are friendly, the atmosphere is relaxed and there are plenty of things to keep you occupied.
On a side note, a few friends have been nutting out an idea to put together a band, having found out that there is some quite good musical talent floating around. We're still yet to kit ourselves out and practice but an aspiration would be to get a gig somewhere in the town.
