Al Berry hits Vancouver

Al Berry (Dan's college and uni friend) stopped by for a visit on her way home from sunny England.

She, like many others before her, had trouble resisting the cupcakes of the cupcake shop...

We had a trip to Whistler and had a couple of great days skiing.

Things were friendly at times....

But a little more tense at others...

And of course always scenic...

Was this before or after she left?!! We'll let you decide...

Some people may have noticed (well, that's if anyone actually still checks this thing anymore!) that the blog has taken a bit of a back seat over the past few months (ie. we've been too lazy to update it). Anyway, it's back now and also has the added feature of Google Maps! (Google is gradually taking over everything in my life - gmail, maps, blog, docs, photos, everything!) Hopefully it helps to give you a bit more of an idea of where we are and makes it a bit more interactive. If you click on the markers the blue ones have photos. We'll add some videos in there soon too.

To catch up on the last few months we're going to have to fly through a few things. Since the last post we've had a few visitors, been to Australia and back and had lots of exciting times. Posts will follow asap!

Christmas 2006/7 at Apex Ski Resort (again!)

Lindor, our Christmas Snowman

Apex was so good last year, we decided to take our family there for christmas. After a busy week at work (and a very crowded apartment), we left the city and drove inland to where the snow is thick and white, it doesn't rain and sometimes the sun even shines!

Sunrise on the Mountain. A view from our living room.
