Breakfast at hotel followed by walk along the lovely seafront. Call into the grand old hotel The Empress, view the impossibly narrow street Fan Tan Alley, which featured in the film " Bird on the Wire" with Mel Gibson.
Return to Vancouver by bus/ferry to pick up Jeep Commander from Hertz, who lived down to their reputation by making us wait an eternity.
Set off at about 5 pm for long drive along the Sea to Sky Highway 99, the magnificent road linking Vancouver with Whistler. Short stop along the way to view the beautiful Shannon Falls.
Our unit at Woods in Whistler is ideal and superbly fitted-out.
Decide to opt for takeaway pizza for dinner from Pizza Cafe ( a very original name ) which we eventually located after Bert and I had brought to bear our formidable map-reading talents. Needless to say we ate rather late that evening!
Cheers
The Obese Ferret.
