Buddy enjoying the beach, literally - he insists on eating the seaweed!

This is how Paul talks to you when he is on the phone!

Paul being arty - this is frost!

View from the cabin. With no computers or mobile phone signals it was the perfect getaway!

Even Buddy made a new friend - Casey.

Hot tub anyone - room for a small one!

Hils dodgy left knee was soon fixed with a very strong pain killer and a bottle of red wine!

1 pint of beer = 1 pint of water. Or in Russ`s case 10 pints of beer = 1 pint of water!

Of course, it was all about the Apres Ski!

Icy conditions made for some hairy moments!

Mount Baker, USA.

We have been fogged in for a week but it makes for some impressive pictures! This is Vancouver from Cypress Mountain.

From this.........

Hil took a tumble - she said she was sun bathing!

Paul looking goooood!

Cloud inversion - Vancouver is just peeking out of the clouds!

Not much better tonight!

Foggy view from the balcony last night.

Opps!

The Canucks mascot Fin, he kept the crowd entertained!

Not much action at the goal end!

The play was fast and furious.

Vancouver Canucks V New Jersey Devils - Hils first Ice Hockey Game!

As you can see Paul and Trixie didn't!

Today Hils and Buddy went for a nice walk..........

Need we say any more!

They even named a run after Hils - Davies Dervish!

Views from the aptly named 7th Heaven.

Make sure you get my good side!

Paul and Jim just chillin!

Jackson gets an instant face lift!

Even the dogs had a good time!

Happy New Year from the skiing and snowboarding gang!

New Year's Eve on the mountain.
