A trip to Canada in December of last year was a good opportunity for some some travel snap shots.
The main destination was Whistler for a spot of snowboarding. With record snowfall for November 09 I was expecting some epic powder. It rained two days before we arrived and the temperature dropped to -15! Still, the riding was good, the scenery was jaw dropping. The two and a half hour bus ride from Vancouver to Whistler brought a tear to my eye and silenced me. Stopping in Vancouver for a couple of nights broke the traveling up nicely. I also got a chance to step out and take some city shots. The low sun and long shadows grabbed my attention. The city had a very welcoming feel, relaxed and clean. There was a buzz about the 2010 Winter Olympics, Christmas and the fresh snow for the season.
