The Rocky Mountains

Hello everyone.
Well, unfortunately our 4 days off went by incredibly fast however, the trip to the rocky mountains was well worth it. Carole-Anne and I went to Sunshine Village yesterday... who would have thought that you could ski/snowboard on may 2-4 weekend?? Anyways, it was the most awesome experience ever! I now have to come back in the winter which is apparently billion times better than the spring. The only suggestion I would make is ... bring your gear across the country even though you only plan on going once. The rentals took forever to get and the boots were awful -- my ankles are still swollen :( But it was totally worth it :) I didn't get any pictures of us on the mountain because my camera is enormous and wouldn't fit in my snowpants pocket -- I didn't wear my jacket and it was still too warm!
Today, we went to Cora's for breakfast -- yes I know it's un-original, but it's nice to have a taste of back home out here. In the afternoon we did a little shopping and this evening Carole-Anne and I went to a dinner theater show at Jubilations. The act was pretty funny and the food was pretty good -- it actually reminded me a bit of La Ferme Rouge (which is in Quebec for all of you from SW Ontario). Afterwards we went to the bar next door called Aussi Rules and they had a show called Dueling pianos -- you guessed it -- two guys and two grand pianos at the centre of the place playing whatever songs the crowd wanted. It was pretty good, the crowd went nuts when they played some Saskatchewan Song... something about barley, wheat... beer...? I just went along and said "hey" whenever it was time lol.
I'm too lazy/tired to hook-up my camera tonight to post the pictures we took of the rockies, maybe next time I post I will add them.
Tomorrow we head back to Edmonton, return the rental car and get picked up by friends of ours and get driven to Slave Lake -- Oh it's going to be a long day.
That's all folks!
