Two nights without internet and nothing to do at night but watch the stars slowly blink alive.
We’ve spent two days in Whistler RV park 20 km from Whistler Village. We hadn’t been up here for years and loved the drive through the mountains. The road was upgraded for the Olympics so easy and spectacular. We met up with Fay and Ted for happy hour and dinner already made - shades of our first Yukon trip.
Our first full day started with a trip to Brandywine Falls, an easy walk to a spectacular long drop of water into a glacier-carved canyon. Everything in the forest is carpeted with thick, dry moss and must be a dripping rainforest (snow forest) in the winter.
We went into Whistler Village for lunch and a walk-about. It has changed dramatically since we were last there decades ago. A meandering pedestrian-only village with every description of shops and restaurants and street entertainment - Olympic rings, immaculate gardens, water features and art decorate the village. Our waitress has found that BC tourists are in the minority, even Canadians are not as numerous as people from around the world.
