Day 32 | u can all go home now

The only girl in my group didn't show up for lessons this morning so instead of getting up the gondola ahead of the crowd, we waited around to see if she was going to show up and ended up in the middle of the crowd.  We waited in line for the gondola for a half hour!  And that was the Ski School line.  The Village is crazy busy and with five days left of the holiday break, I am ready for everyone to leave NOW!

When we finally packed into a cabin, we only had an hour before lunch ... or one run, so we took Orange Peel to Tokum, which was the run of the day.  The kids loved it because there were plenty of jumps to hit on the sides and I think they hit every single one!

We went in for lunch early and left early.  The kids wanted to do the same run again so we went up Garbanzo Chair.  Instead of going down Tokum though, I took them through the bike trail named Freight Train.  OMG they loved that and wanted to do it again.  Of course, we did it again.

After that I thought the kids would love to do Marmot Trees so we rode down to mid-station and took the gondi up to the Roundhouse.  As we dropped into Marmot Trees, I realized with all the snow we've had in the last week that Marmot Trees didn't exist.  No one has tracked it out so there is four feet of fresh snow covering the best kids tree run on Whistler.  Bummer.  My kids didn't mind because they didn't know what they were missing.  Instead we took the P2P line down through the trees and ended up at the CLC for ice cream apres.

One last rip down to the village and that finished the day.  It was really cold today so I was happy to finish a tiny bit early.
