What the hell is up with the weather!

Probably the biggest surprise over here so far has been the weather. When we left the UK it was freezing, and we weren't sure whether we'd get to the airport because of the snow. Whe we got to Vancouver it was about 10degrees!

I thought it would at least be really cold up in the mountains though. However, after a week up here, I'm still waiting to get cold!On the walk into the Village today I passed about 10 people wearing shorts! I really didn't need my coat on. What's happened to winter? Leaving the town yesterday we were getting soaked by torrential rain! What's happened to the snow?

Still, apparently up on the peaks the snow base has pretty much tripled since Christmas, so once we can get up there when we can actually see stuff and when it isn't blowinga gale it'll be sweet! Still, the ridings been prettyy fun already, despite (or perhaps because of) the slushy conditions!

Supposed to get colder, and snow for pretty much the next two weeks, so fingers crossed!
