If you have time, head east (another few hours drive) along the #1 highway. Check out the Chilliwack area (smells like manure -gross-, but omg BEAUTIFUL areas there), Harrison Hot Springs, and venture on into Hope (if your car has good clearance, drive up the 11km gravel road -lots of potholes) into Jones Lake for an afternoon picnic. I know the picture is washed out, but that's my fault for using a crappy monitor to raise the contrast/brightness (car was blackened out due to bad lighting).
In Whistler though, get ripped off by the ticket booth and pay to take the Gondola to the top (bring a jacket).
omg, is it bad that I'm excited
FOR you? I need to not reply here anymore (don't want to hijack the thread). lol
