Day 15 - Whistler to Sun Peaks

Sadly left Whistler today, it looked so beautiful in the gorgeous sunshine. Had a long journey to Sun Peaks (about 355km - halfway to Jasper) but we took it slowly and stopped off whenever we saw a nice view. Had a walk at Seton Lake for half an hour, which was really pretty, and then pulled in at Lillooet for petrol and lunch. Bit of a one horse town in the region where the majority of the population is First Nation (indigenous North Americans). The scenery was quite barren in contrast to the lovely wooded mountains on the way out of Whistler. However, once past Kamloops it became much prettier again with the woods and snow capped mountains. The mountains here are densely covered with conifers everywhere you look - never seen so many trees.
Just before we reached Sun Peaks we hit a brief rain storm and saw the best rainbow ever 🌈. More photos of course!
Our hotel tonight is really nice, in a small purpose built ski resort. Our room has two queen beds so......sorry Mark....we're sleeping separately 😋. Big beds all to ourselves, what's not to like?We also got a complimentary bottle of bubbly for our birthdays. Had a quick dinner and then chilled in one of the three outdoor hot tubs. Loving life 😄Read more
