After a very long day, we arrived in Whistler and picked up our skis and boots. We stayed up until 11.30 (7.30am UK time) but we were all awake again at about 4 am. Our first photograph was the traditional one of Gez on the balcony in his swimming trunks.

Our apartment is a bit on the small side compared with what we had in Vail, but it's big enough, though if all the beds were full (6 people) there'd be nowhere to store the suitcases.

Our balcony overlooks the main town square area. Everything is still looking 'christmassy' and the boxing week sales are still on. There was a bit of a fracas outside at about 2 o'clock this morning, and the perpetrators sound like they are staying in the same place as us :(
