Peak to Peak
For one of our outings in Whistler, we road what is called the "Peak to Peak." It starts at the base of Whistler mountain and carries you up to the top and then over to Blackcomb mountain.

At the top of each mountain there are huge lodges with restaurants & gift shops. While we were walking around, Zach pointed out the crazy way over to Blackcomb:

| see that gap and the red gondolas behind me? that's where we were going next. my nerves for heights were going crazy! |

Here is the crazy part. This "ride" is the longest in the world of its kind! I kept asking Zach: "how do they know that this is safe?!" He thought my fear was funny.

Graham did so great the whole day. He stayed in the backpack on the gondolas and just checked out the people. He was definitely a person magnet.
