Once a year Whistler has their Santa Ski Day, where if you show up at 7 AM dressed as Santa, you get a free lift ticket. Our costumes only cost $8 so this was a mega good deal. Plus it was lots of fun!

It was funny having people yell things at us all day. “SANTA!!!” “MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!” “HO HO HO” “SANTA AM I GETTING A GO-PRO FOR CHRISTMAS??”. I guess the little kids in lessons were counting santas all day, they would get soooo excited!!!
we duct taped our santa hats to our helmets
A+ day!!
santa day even made the newspaper! unfortunately we are a little out of the frame of this shot
The morning was perfect, then visibility got a bit bad in the afternoon. We still skied a good full day. Then we all came back to Rob’s cabin for a party. He brought a keg, haha. I don’t like beer at all but I still had some.
The party went on for a loooong time, even after I stopped drinking (…DAD). Two nights in a row of very little sleep. :/
Still more to come…
