Getaway to Whistler & Horstman House

Last weekend we went to our condo at Whistler BC located in Horstman House.   We own a 1/4 share of a unit there, getting access one week in four.  However, we usually leave it in the rental pool and only visit a few times a year.  Horstman House is very family oriented and has a great outdoor pool, open all year round, a gym, and a games room.  It is situated near the end of Blackcomb Way, close to the entrance to Lost Lake Road.  Good in the summertime as well.

On this visit, we took our friends Myra and Jan - Jan is a great downhill skiier and loves skiing on Whistler Mountain.  Also drove up my sister, Linda, her husband, Shelly, and their companion, Joan, to their place on Blueberry Hill.  There had been lots and lots of snow in the week before and the weekend was gorgeous - lots of snow, and finally some sun.

Neil and I plus Myra walked to Rainbow Park, about 1 1/2 hours return.

Rainbow Park - the lake, in the distance, is frozen over

Neil was very happy because there were lots of families walking their dogs.

The snow was so deep - here Myra is sitting on top of a picnic bench

The seven of us went for dinner to the Tandoori Grill - our most favorite restaurant in Whistler.  Outstanding food and great service.  They always recognize us even it we are there only a few times a year.    They have great reviews too!
