south lake tahoe

After 2 flights and 9h of travelling i finally arrived in Reno last night. my plane landed at 10.10pm and the bus to Tahoe was 10.30 (next one was 12.30) so i had 30min to get out of the plane and get me bags... I really didnt wana wait 2h at the airport super-tired in the middle of the night... I got my bags 10.28 no kidding....
1h on the bus thru the land of Casinos and a taxi ride up the last hill and i was there!!
Im staying with Daniel, a friend from last year in whistler, and his two friends. the house is sweet, 2 levels, pool-table, bbg, hot-tub and a nice patio!

sooo, today I had my first day at Heavenly. Its about 10min walk from where we live so u dont need to wait for any bus. it had been really warm lately so the base wasnt the best, but they recently had some snowfall so it was good enough for some shreddin. we spent all day shreddin one of the 3 parks they have, it was small but fun! all lifts are kinda old and slow, but theres no pretty much no one here so there were no lineups :)

had a bbq tonite with lotsa meat, so now we're all kinda dazed.. just sittin with our laptops waiting for anyone to login on msn hehe..

well, thats all for now, will bring the camera up tomorow to show how fun we have..
laters!

back in the travelling buissness..



sooo, after a few months working back home in sweden it was finally time to head east, cross the atlantic and step out on canadian ground. Back in Canada, back in BC and back in Whistler.. didnt feel wierd comin back or anything, actually felt pretty natural, this is where i should be when winter is arriving... :)
Arrived in whistler 'round 9pm, Jesse picked me up at the bus stop in creek and drove me to their casa.. after 24h of travelling i was pretty tired so fell asleep straight away..

whistler hadnt got snow in like 2-3weeks so there was now idea hiking for powder, actually the conditions were really bad, they had already had lots of deaths in avalanches so we sticked to the parks.. and they were GREAT! had some awesome sessions in there with my roommates and pple i knew from before..

was pretty jet-lagged the first days so spent the first evenings just sitting in the couch with ma laptop haha

well, last night in whistler we went to merlins there were some celtic punk-rock band playin called the Dreadnoughts, didnt know anythin about them but got invited to it by a friend and DAMN! they were good!! kinda like the dropkick murphys... it was a sweeet finish of my trip to whis..
