If Matell ever decided to build Barbie a town to match her ski equipped SUV it would no doubt look much like Whistler does now. Such a well planned village with near perfect log cabins built alongside. Whistler and Whistler Creek would surely spoil that hard working Barbie and her token friends with its pretentious glory and spotless appearance. I am not sure how, but the town is nearly too neat to the extent that you forget you are not dreaming while there…. Ah that’s the magic!
Money drips from the walls here and it is probably for the best as there are few places you can go in the Village that doesn’t cost a fortune (plus tip) to visit. Even the internet cafes that lowly backpackers visit tend to be at least five times more expensive than you would find in the city! Its hard to imagine writing home much if I lived here! The clubs are far better than the mishmash rubbish found in Vancouver, and even the Bears know when to smile for the camera’s and when to run from hungry tourists.
The mountain is absolutely epic and probably worth the 100 bucks it will cost
Did I mention it was summer next week?
Classic Whistler, still going strong well into May...you for a days riding and eating, but for those dedicated to the cause there is absolutely no excuse for not getting there. Steal a ticket. Pawn your girlfriends underwear, GET THERE!!!
Spent but a week in this amazing place and had blast, go the Southside Lodge, such good hosts! And what a fabulous layout you have there! Say hi to Simon, Toshi and Zenta for me while you’re there. Big up’s to Nathan and the crew, you guys rip!
I’ll def be back for a visit, load em up people! Shoot the star$!
For a longer trip however? Hmmmm, I’d probably choose somewhere a little less plastic.
Cheer JB!
