New York to Whistler

OK050 touched down in New York on Sunday afternoon and as we rode in our yellow taxi into Manhattan we knew our big trip had really started.

After playing in the Dave Kelly Winter Classic poker tournament on Saturday night until the wee hours we left Prague for New York a little tired but very excited. Upon arrival we had a great night with Anna & James, as we popped into Wolfgang's for great steaks then watched Arizona come soooo close to winning the Superbowl! We were roaring for you Cardinals along with all the New York Giants fans in "The Hill" bar.

We left as quietly as we could at 4am on Monday morning for our trip to Vancouver.

12 hours later we met Rob in Whistler and after a night of "1 more pitcher, 1 more pitcher" we had an absolutely brilliant day on the slopes. The conditions were perfect today, with blue skies and flat and fast slopes.

What a start to our trip! if it keeps going like this then it may never end...
