Vancouver....Whistler....Whispering clouds.....

It is great to be back in Vancouver after so many years.  British Columbia region is the most beautiful place in Canada.

This time I drove to Whistler via the scenic Sea to Sky Hwy 99.  Nature has blessed this region with waterfalls and the snow clad mountain peaks.


Whistler is brimming with ski enthusiasts as always.  The ski pads are open till May even though the snow in some areas has receded. Whistler hosted the Winter Olympics in 2010. The infrastructure has improved a lot since I visited in early 2000.
I also wanted to make the most out of my drive by stopping at every possible view points. I enjoyed looking down at the  Horse shoe bay and Lion's bay with ferries and ships moving serenely on the blue water.  The mountains covered with tall cedar, cypress and pine trees played hide seek with their snow covered peaks.  A moment to remember, a moment when time freezes and you surrender to the nature. Indeed, "What a wonderful world"  !!




PEACE ON EARTH
