A year and a half ago Parsnip invited me to Vancouver, both of us never thought I’d actually go but I hopped on a flight and made it. The flight was actually quicker than the time I tried to get to Cornwall by train, never again!
The Good Things:
- The snowboarding
- The snow
- The free lift passes
- Michael Bublé driving a giant cake onto the ice rink
- A girl giving me her business card whilst in the powder
- Telling KMF Parsnip was being too loud
- Scaring my hockey team by saying I’d been arrested whilst they were having their team talk, time zones and all that!
- The shop called Mr Lube
- The sunset
The Not So Good Things:
- The stupid tax system
- Things doubling in price whilst walking to the till
- Manners
- Beards
- The price of beer
- Headbutting the piste
- Going on a double black diamond run as it was getting dark
- Setting off an avalanche
- Parsnip being too noisy in the most inappropriate way (scarred for life)
- Being threatened with a ticket from a police officer for apparently jay walking
- Then being accused by the police officer for smoking weed despite the actual culprit walking past him, holding a joint. Idiot!
All in all successful trip.
A life of many faces
