I dont like the exchange rate!

Well after the party that we attended last night the whole ethos of Non Stop became clear.
Lots of drinking partying and general fun! I called it a halt after a 23 hr day just before the police arrived to tell them to quieten down!

Today was a little more leisurely but we were still up and going by 8.30 ish and in Mugshots for not long after 10 for a full breakfast Canadian style.

After this it was time to hit the shops to make some purchases - skis and a helmet. Unfortunately after walking into the first ski shop we came across i was slightly shocked at the price of skis; about CAD$1000! But they are kinda essential so have to be bought. I have lined up to try out some skies tomoz, going bright and early at 8 to collect them! Then the fun begins!

I also went on the lookout for a helmet today. After trying on a million and one Giro helmets to find one that fitted me and my goggles i eventually went for a white Smith one. Quite like it after being unsure to start with.

Still suffering from the jet lag slightly and currently think its early in the morning when its no where near - struggled a bit at the party at the lodge we had tonight. Met Louise for the first time out here today as well, doesn't seem like she having much luck at the mo though as she was brought down the mountain today by a ski patrol and that's after being in hospital earlier this week!

With the lack of sleep a major issue and early start tomoz i will sign off for today here.

Night
