This is where I started to realize something a little peculiar about the way I'm traveling on this adventure; there's certain places I want to go, or feel like I SHOULD go, because they're famous, or super cool, or whatever. But then when I get to them, I realize that they are quite lonely places for a solo traveler to visit.

Whistler is an AMAZING ski town; I loved every bit of it, but I had no interest in spending more than an afternoon walking around it. Now: If I could drag the Snowboard Fam out here? Jesus, I'd want to spend WEEKS in this town! So even though I feel bad about only spending a little bit of time in this insanely awesome place... Maybe I'll come back someday. With somebody to explore it with!
