So I just arrived at Whistler, BC before I start my summer long shift. It was quite an interesting adventure and a really smooth transition from the busy streets of Vancouver to the quiet suburban town of Whistler.
Everything was well-planned ahead and the whole travel process was fast as ever! I arrived in Vancouver around 9:30am just in time to catch the Pacific Coach Bus to Whistler. The weather was sunny and the view on the Sea-To-Sky highway was fabulous.
After I arrived at the Gateway loop in Whistler village. I took a cab from the loop up to the Staff housing. Checked in and got a room in my apartment. Turns out the apartment only had one other occupant and rest were empty. Rest of the day went pretty quiet, unpacked my stuff and hiked down the Whistler village and bought groceries. I went to a lot of stores asking about bikes since it would be the most efficient way to travel around Whistler. Disappointed by the store rates, I hopped online and found some good deals on shitty, retail store bikes that people were selling used. Got in touch with this lady that had a Norco Kokanee bike, about the right size for me but the bike needed rechaining.
Contacted some stores and turns out rechaining will only be around 20-30$ max. Perfect.
Now that I'm set for the next few days, I await eagerly for my first day as a Lift Host in training.
