My hope and spirits have been renewed. Three medals within 45 minutes. I am so glad I stayed up all night watching the Olympics (again). Now I feel like such a weanie for complaining about being tired and almost giving up on my knit Olympic dream…
Having Pearl and John in tow has made this trip really exciting. Having a gorgeous (free) condo to stay in even more so…. The best breakfast ever at 2pm… Pony Espresso in Pemberton. Latte larger than fetus and John had breakfast and lunch. This is his sandwich –they bake all their own bread!
The goal of the day was to embroil Pearl in one of our danger adventures, but being a bit more tame and not properly outfitted for White Water Rafting, we settled for a hike at Nairn Falls.
It was grueling, but beautiful. One mile lake is actually much further –totally misleading and I am definitely writing a letter to Parks Canada.
Knitting at the destination and just taking it all in stretched afternoon into early evening.
S
ome groceries, back to the condo and settled in for an evening of Olympics. I know and apologize, it will all be over soon and I will return back to my original knit reporting. In the meantime I am sucking up all of the fantastic scenery and camradery. I might even have some fun at the Whistler Market tomorrow. I am hoping that Pearl and I will have a surprise visit from Judy and that there will be time to get to the Squamish Lilwat Cultural Centre which has a massive display of native textile design and cedar baskets.
If not tomorrow then Monday morning…Oh yes, Pearl and I have managed to wrangle another day here. Hot damn. It’s 10pm and still 70 degrees with a breeze.
