Day 128 - Snowboarding in a white out....

Todays blog is abit of a catch up as we are having abit of a stressed time lately. We have both given notice at our jobs, we're leaving our apartment and trying to sell our car before we leave. 

UUUGGGHHH HAARRRRR ! Breath....

But in the meantime we have managed to Snowboard some more. It was beautiful for a while and then became a whiteout. The Ski Lift took us right into the clouds. We took the highest lift there is in Sunshine for the first time and we couldn't see more than 10 metres in front of us and it was Sammy's first blue run just to add fuel to the fire. But she loved it...


I changed my binding to 15/15 for a something different, that turned out to be a bad idea. 5/15 is way better for my style of riding.


Down the mountain the weather is a lot nicer, well we can see at least.


 Sammy slashing through the powder. She's now getting off chair lift's without falling, switching natural to goofy and doing nice big S curves. Soooooo Proud.


(VIDEO IS STILL TO COME)

Sammy has gone a little nuts with the whole Christmas thing. She sings Carols all day long and freaks out when she see's cute little snowmen and other assorted Chrissy items. She's brought a few home lately. 


This is currently my work desk....


Sandrine work Christmas Party was at the Crazy Weed restaurant.


This is the team at All in the Wild.  On the left is Sandrine's boss Jason who is the wildlife photographer and owner of the gallery. Working in Canada has been really cool and definitely a great experience. Below is Sandrine getting her Christmas present from Jason...


We've had such a great time and really it a little bitter sweet that we're leaving actually.


Sammy was heading to work in the early morning and caught some beautiful morning sky shots. 








This was 9 am, which is pretty much when the sun rises here...


Carolyn and Paul have come from Australia and were passing though Banff on their Canadian/American trip. We all caught up and had a wicked time eating out and having drinks in Banff and Canmore...




Maybe a little too much fun...!



Hope you enjoyed our happy snaps.  

We are planning and big trip over the next 2 weeks so stay tuned for our next updates.
