Yesterday, we went to Whistler to see the beautiful sight. It was a long 2 hour ride. There were lots of trees by the highway on the way to Whistler. I slept for most of the trip. After about 1 and half hours, we went to A&W to get some lunch. Ahhh! It was such a nice and partly cloudy day, perfect for going to Whistler.
When we finally arrived at Whistler, there was a huge inukshuk greeting us. We took many pictures of that. When we were at the parking lot, we saw lots of people with mountain bikes and they looked so cool with their helmets and protective gears! It is also some sort of anniversary or something for Jeep so there were Jeep shows at the parking lot. After we paid, we went off to explore the Whistler Village.
As we walked, mom was taking pictures of almost EVERYTHING such as flower baskets, signs, and even shops! Seriously mom, I personally think that there’s nothing special about those things so dear mom can you please stop taking so much pictures? Anyway, Justin got a mocha flavored frappucino from Starbucks and he let me drink some. Frappucinos taste pretty awesome! But I saw this ice cream shop named Cow’s last time and I think it is quite famous so I decided to get that instead. (since Starbucks are everywhere)
As we went on our way to find the famous Cow’s ice cream shop, mom kept taking pictures as usual. We finally found that big cow statue in front of the ice cream shop I had to promise mom to take a picture with the cow after I got my ice cream*sigh*okay I just can’t stand her sometimes…When I got into the shop, there were lots of different flavors of ice cream. There were also postcards, pens, posters, and other stuff with the Cow’s logo on it. The ice creams had some funky names like Gooey Mooey, Brownie Explosion, and much more crazy marks there were also normal names like strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate. I got a two scoop ice cream on waffle cone I chose the mocha almond crunch and vanilla. (Cow’s are famous for their vanilla ice cream that’s why I chose it)Both of the flavors tasted so good! Especially the vanilla I also bought a couple bookmarks and a pen from Cow’s.
We mostly just went to shops for the rest of the trip and I didn’t buy anything else other than the stuff from Cow’s on I am such a good kid. When we were on our way back, we stopped at Lion’s Bay since it was so beautiful. I took some pictures from my ipod and we played tag by the beach. I had a great time yesterday and I got really tired. I look forward to our trip tomorrow!
