Now, let me just say that the mountains surrounding Whistler are some of the most spectacular places I have ever seen!
We explored Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains, and went on a snowmobile tour of the nearby Callaghan Valley.

Whistler foi um dos lugares mais lindos que eu já vi. A cidade é completamente rodeada de montanhas!
Passeamos nas montanhas de Whistler e Blackcomb, e fizemos um passeio de snowmobile no Vale Callaghan.
The snowmobile tour of Callaghan Valley was an utterly amazing experience, and not one that I will soon forget. I was so exhilarated, I did not even realize how cold it was. The feeling of looking back and seeing how you climbed up an entire mountain is indescribable.

O passeio de snowmobile no vale foi impressionante, e eu acho que não vou me esquecer desta experiência nunca! Eu estava tão animado, que nem percebi o frio. O sentimento quando você olha pra trás, e vê a montanha inteira que você acabou de subir, é realmente maravilhoso.
As we approached the top of the mountain, we saw a little house, which looked like something from Narnia. We went inside drank hot apple cider and ate cookies, and as I looked out the window, I could see the entire valley below me. There were more tones of white and green than I even knew existed, and I could not possibly draw my eyes away.
Of course, there were so many more snowy sceneries to explore in this area, all nearly as beautiful as this.
We went first to Whistler Mountain, and then Blackcomb, in the most remarkable way possible!

Quando fomos chegando no topo da montanha, vimos uma casinha, que parecia algo direto de Narnia. Entramos e bebemos cidra de maçã quentinha, comemos biscoitos, e eu parei para olhar para a janela, e a paisagem completamente branca e verde era espetacular!
Mas, claro, tinham muitos outros cenários bonitos para serem explorados, quase tão lindos quanto esse. Fomos primeiro para a montanha de Whistler, e depois Blackcomb, na maneira mais incrível possível!
As much as I loved seeing all the snow-covered mountains above, below and all around me, what was most magnificent was the Peak 2 Peak Gondola, which linked Whistler Mountain’s Roundhouse Lodge, and Blackcomb’s Mountain Rendezvous Restaurant. This entire trip was beautiful, but nothing as much as seeing the snow-covered pine trees all around you as you went further and further into the fog, between the two mountains.
I’ve always been a city boy, but there’s really nothing like reconnecting with nature!
And as for tradition, here is this post’s music video!

Por mais que eu tenha adorado ver as montanhas cobertas de neve ao meu redor, o que eu achei mais me marcou, foi o Peak 2 Peak Gondola, um tipo de bondinho que atravessa da Roundhouse Lodge na montanha de Whistler, até o restaurante Rendezvous, na montanha de Blackcomb.
Eu sempre gostei muito de cidades grandes, mas não tem nada como se reconectar com a natureza!
E como já está virando tradição por aqui, aqui está o videoclipe do post!
