I took this photo as we were flying over the Sierra Nevada Mountains. We have had a very good winter and this is why California has official called off the drought. Look at all that snow!
I flew on WEST JET out of John Wayne Airport and it was only their second flight from JW. My flight only had 21 people on it. Wow, I can't remember every being on a plane that wasn't jam packed full of people. My question is: why is my seat so far back?
We stayed in the DOWNTOWN area of Vancouver next to the Convention Center and the Sea Wall.
This is the OLYMPIC CAULDRON from the 2010 Olympics. Remember Wayne Gretzky lighting it? They still use it for special occasions. I found that the city was nice and clean but had too many GLASS buildings and not enough OLDER BRICK buildings tossed in. But the surrounding NATURAL SCENERY was incredibly beautiful. I've never seen anything like it. The MOUNTAINS coming down and meeting the SEA was a beautiful sight.
On our FIRST day, we made the 2 hour drive to WHISTLER. Whistler itself is not as great as the DRIVE up there. The pictures I took don't begin to do JUSTICE to the pure MAJESTY of the area. The colors, depth, breeze and sounds cannot be CAPTURED by the camera.
Huge GRANITE rock faces with all different colors of GREENERY everywhere.
We stopped at SHANNON FALLS and it was a wonderful little picnic area with a river, huge trees and a STUNNING waterfall. Just to sit there and take in the scenery and HEAR that water was amazing. So PEACEFUL.
Shannon Falls
Here the Handsome Husband is standing by the side of the road with RUGGED PEAKS topped with SNOW and WATER is at the bottom of those MOUNTAINS. Incredible.
Location, location, location.
The most GORGEOUS location ever for McDonalds.
