We’re not huge fans of the Olympics ’round here — especially the ones coming to Vancouver (you have to admit it’s a lot of money for a 2 week party), but now that they’re almost here, we hope they go off without a hitch — the money’s been spent, after all.  We had an opportunity to visit Whistler for a couple of nights, so we figured: Why not?

We posed for the obligatory logo pictures:

Whistler 2010 with the Dooze

We hung in the village, attempting to look local and cool:

dooze-whistler-starbucks

We played in the snow:

We made some faces for the camera:

And then we drove the 10 hour trip home in the rain (sorry, no pics of the world famous Sea-to-Sky Highway), including 2 ferries and 1 mistimed trip to IKEA.  Note to self:  NEVER again on a Saturday.
