Now in Squamish...

Sorry everyone - I have no pictures. However, I am happy to report that everything has gone fairly seemlessly to date. No hiccups in the flight, all my bags came off at the other end, the rental car is an excellent idea as opposed to depending on busing from Vancouver to Squamish (if nothing more than a freedom thing -we were able to go out for dinner and pick up groceries without depending on anyone), and even getting accreditation and picking up the uniform was fairly painless.

Tomorrow, however, will be the real test: as I do not have a Hwy 99 road pass and parking pass, I need to take the bus from Squamish to Whistler. Maggi and I have managed to decipher (we think) the bus schedule, where we need to go and meet the bus, and how long it will take us to get there so we aren't late for our training.

Promise to get some pictures posted soon! My first day off is Saturday - so I'll bring the camera around with me then.

Oh - overage costs? $125. for the extra bag and overweight charge for the bike box. My duffel was officially a few pounds overweight... but she let it slide. Plane was full of people going to the Olympics. I know - shocking.
