the BnB: A.K.A the Blue Mountain Lodge

so moved into the new place which is a tiny little room on the top level of this this:



its a pretty cool place even if it tiny. there is 1 room with 3 beds and then a really really small shower/toilet room thingy-ma-gig.

its cheaper than the hostel at $145 a week each. we get breakfast served each morning which includes:

juices, cereals, yoghurt, fruit, criosants, boiled eggs, milk and muffins. its SOOOOO good, but then ive been eating the staff cafe food from the banff centre the last 2 months so everything tastes good. if you eat breakfast at 10:30ish and grab a muffin + piece of fruit to go, then you can go the whole day till dinner time without having to eat anything else. it really is a solid breakfast.

now for some pics of the room: (cos words cant describe this thing LOL)



thats my corner, yes i sleep under a bear :-S it is actually quite freaky waking up under it. oh and having a sloping roof like that sucks ass, its impossible to store stuff properly in that corner ><



thats the other side of the room. yes there are two fox skins hanging by the couch! also in the room are some old saws, 2 sets of antlers from what i think were deer, an axe and some of those weird oldschool snow boot things which look like tennis rackets!

anyway it hasnt snowed in a few days but ive been up 3 days in a row now. went night skiing last night which was chilled but the snow at norquay is really really slushy. went to sunshine today and did a few runs and found some nice snow with tim. wasnt a bad day at all considering we were there for only 3 hours.

anyway thats about it, gotta go grab some fresh baked cookies from down stairs ;-)

toodles
