Last Days in Canada



Well our time at Whistler is just about over as is the season. There is a lot less snow now with less falls and melting snow. The difference from when we arrived 2 months ago to now is huge. We've had a great time here and our skiing has improved enormously but we are definitely ready for some warmer weather and the World Cup. Not much has been happening since the last email. We went ziplining just outside Whistler which was awesome and skiied the peak to creek blue run whish tested us but we were both amazed with our efforts, only a few minor stacks. Great views all the way down the mountain. We are finishing up work soon and hope to have a few more days on the mountain. Our kiwi friends invited us over for a spa at their place last Saturday, but we were not prepared for it being outside. It was fantastic though sitting in a warm hot tub out in the snow, Bryce even rolled in the snow to cool down before jumping back in, Caitlin was not as brave and just had a quick dip in the pool before jumping back in. We did fresh tracks which is an early run before everyone gets up the mountain and include brekky. Caitlin went on a private snow mobile tour with the best guide in whistler and played with the bases husky puppies. It snowed last night (and has been snowing quite a bit) so we had one of our final skis on powder, Bryce is skiing through trees and shin deep powder. But there are still some face plants and mishaps.
Time is flying and we will be in the UK before we know it. We leave Canada on the 18th bussing it to San Francisco (a fun day and a half ride) so will be quite feral by the time we get there. We'll have 2 days there before flying to Orlando to connect to our flight to St Kitts on the 22nd. The game is on the 24th Aus v. South Africa so look out for us in the telly dancing with the Jamacian's and for Bryce's Alan Border like moe.
Keep in touch
Bryce and Caitlin
