Kurt's Visit

As I am travelling for work more and getting more aeroplan points than we can use, we decided to invite Kurt out for a visit to Vancouver.

He arrived on Thursday night after a layover in Montreal. On Friday Kurt visited some of the tour operators in Vancouver to promote our tour boat operation, Capital Cruises.

After we were all done work, we headed up to Whistler for the weekend. We awoke Saturday morning to 16cm of fresh powder and headed up Blackcomb. It was decent skiing, but after a couple hours Kurt was weak in the knees (not sure if it was the view or muscle fatigue). We had some great runs down 7th heaven and then took the peak2peak over to Whistler.

Sunday, we decided not to ski, instead had a nice brunch and walked around the village. Afterwards we drove back to Vancouver.

Kurt and I managed to get last minute tickets to the Vancouver Canucks vs Colorado Avalanche. Good game with the Canucks winning 4-2.

Last night we had dinner with Kerri and Adam. Kurt and Kerri met up earlier at a pub for some St. Paddys day celebrations, needless to say the were totally sober when they showed up for dinner.

Overall a great visit, we enjoyed having Kurt and look forward to the next visit.
