Saturday fun

This is our home away from home for the week - same place we stayed in 10 long years ago the weekend Vanessa was born!!!

Olympic rings still stand proudly in the Village.

Took Jason out for a birthday dinner at Earl's, positioned perfectly to watch the Canucks lose their first game of the season.....!

We had drinks and noshed and then watched the end of the game at home. Sure great having Jason with us.

Weekend in Whistler

Took the ferry out of Nanaimo on Friday on a cloudy rainy day. Vancouver slides by in the drizzle as we near Horseshoe Bay.

Probably a pretty trip, if you could see anything. Weekend is supposed to be all about rain....sigh....but will have a great time anyway.

Jason arrived Sat morning and we wandered around the Village, stopping for lunch at the Longhorn Saloon, watching the crazy dirt bikers roar over jumps and down the mountain. Definitely a sport for the young...! This bear family was too cute!

The fall colours are lovely up here - rained like crazy at night, but during the day just a bit of light drizzle.
