奶油咪咪的喵言貓語

At the end of 2005, we decided to go to Mt baker for a snowboarding trip. One is because the local moutains in vancouver has almost no snow because of the non-stop raining for the past two weeks. The other is because Mt. baker is quite close to the Canadian boarder and it is famous for its deep snow powder for skiiers. So this xmas holiday, we finally went somewhere for a little holiday ^_^ (of course going to Disney land in Florida is much better

We first passed the US/Canadian boarder, the Peach Arch Boarder.
Where the arch stands is exact the line between two countries. The line at that day was amazing lone. We were in line for a good 1and half hour.

Because we decided to make this a mini trip, we booked a hotel to stay overnight so we did not have to rush to the mountain the next morning. Thomas found this great Best Western that has an English heritage touch to it. Even though the price was a steal, the quality is excellent. The cozy dinning room where we had our breakfast indeed felt like a home in London. If I don't tell you, you would don't know this is actually the hotel!


The snow condition there did not let us down. When my snowboard carved down the slope, the sound of the snow blanket swishing up was like music to one's ear. Going down fast with wind blowing fast past one's head was quite an addictive feeling. I understand why some people like street racing despite the danger. Chasing after speed IS fun.
