Hiking Whistler & Blackcomb Mountains

on Sunday we did the "peak to peak" tour of Whistler & Blackcomb mountains. We took the gondola up Whistler mountain, hiked around for a bit, had lunch, took the gondola from the top of Whistler mountain to the top of Blackcomb mountain, hiked around some more (not too much on Blackcomb because at this point it's getting to be a long day), and took the chair lift down. it was smokin' hot (34C) so it was good that we were atop the mountain most of the day as it was slightly cooler up there. When we got to the bottom, we had ice cream and cooled off in the water misters ... which as you will see, Sam was NOT a fan!



The last two days dad has been biking so Sam & mom have been visiting the lake & the pool to keep cool....Sam loves the lake because he loves the sand & the grass. It has been an awesome trip...a bit hot (30's every day) but we are not complaining!! Tomorrow we leave Whistler to Vancouver for a couple of days and then on the way home. I don't know if any of our other hotels have free wi-fi so there may be no more updates until next week.



Going up the gondola to the top of the mountain ... very exciting first gondola ride for Sam! ;)

At the top of the mountain ... a little more exciting and worth waking up for
Enjoying the scenery
Who knew there were monkeys atop Whistler mountain?!
At the bottom of the mountain, walking through the water misters because it was so hot. Apparently Sam would rather be hot!
