Whistler

We took a family trip up north.  We are still hesitant to take John on an airplane but he generally does great in the car so we decided to go check out Whistler, BC since we had never been there.
Of course John had a seizure pretty early on and soaked his car seat.  So, we had to stop and get some plastic bags to cover the seat so we could continue on.


We stopped the first night in North Vancouver.  Here we are getting ready to enjoy some dinner.


We were able to do some shopping and eating at Granville Island before heading up the Sea to Sky highway to Whistler.   Our hotel was right at the base of the ski runs (which are Mtn. bike runs in the summer).  We did a lot of walking around Whistler village and the surrounding areas.   Here is John trying out an ATV. 


Of course no trip would be complete without a big seizure and the hours that it takes to recover.


We rode several gondolas and chairlifts (saw 6 bears!).  



Yoshie and Maya went horseback riding so John and I had fun playing in the sand.



 Not sure what to say about this.  See that little Olympic guy made out of rocks?  Well, there used to be one more.   You can probably guess what happened.
