JANUARY 30, 2011 | FERNIE TRIP | PERSONAL

Tracy and I just came back from Fernie, BC. So much snow!!! Skiing was great but we didn't ski very much because we got stuck behind a car accident and the next photo was our view for a couple of hours. We had a wonderful time and it was a great trip!

Violetta:

your car can make it through that much snow??? U R lucky you have Tracy and Mandy with the shovels:)

Ekaterina:

So snowy in the mountains! we have to go there one of the weekends, haven't been there for some time now...love the contrast of your car and the snow.

Greggy Baby:

Gee I wish I had 3 other people to help me shovel my driveway. I am sure I would have been able to finish much sooner. My poor little Matrix would have gotten stuck in those conditions for sure!

Tracy B!:

Yikes, if that was the highway, I don't think we would have made it! Hopefully the awesome snow conditions stick around until Cam comes up this way!!!

Sergei Belski:

Thank you Kim :) The highway was in a better condition, this was on a side street :)

Kim Quade:

Beautiful pictures, but I got cold just looking at them....burrr! Is the picture with your car in it the highway from Fernie?

Great shots, my favourite hotel is on pic #12, so pretty!

2011-01-21 12:59

Greggy Baby:

It was interesting reading tidbits of information about Las Vegas after the trip. Such as Las Vegas has 18 of the 24 largest hotels in the world. The largest being a complex in Singapore but with the MGM Grand being a close second and the Venetion following a close 3rd. It is amazing actually how much Vegas has changed in the last 25 years. Just watch some older movies or TV shows that have been shot there such as the Original Ocean's 11, Diamonds are forever, or the Vegas tv show. The place looked like a barren desert with open lots all over. Vegas' transformation is actually quite impressive. Alot of the traditionalists though much preferred the old Vegas to the flashy new Vegas.

Day 1: Tracy and I are still in Las Vegas on a mini vacation :) I'm a little behind on posting because I just don't have any time in front of my computer. These are from the first day of our trip. We left all the snow and cold behind and checked into the Mirage Hotel. We arrived pretty late so we didn't do much else other than have some amazing burgers for a late dinner :)
