We have spent the week settling into our new routine of staying inside most of the day in front of a computer. We’ve started to apply for some work, but given the global situation it might take a while to get some. We’ve been trying our best to keep morale up… by getting in the festive spirit! Well, this has been kind of enforced thanks to the decorations in our AirBnB and the snow. We’ve also done some pre winter shopping at the Turkey Sales (it was Canadian thanksgiving weekend – who knew?!).
The weather has been snow match for Ollie, who has been trying to get some mountain biking in with Thom before it becomes far too snowy.
We’ve been trying to do some exercise everyday. This particular workout was inspired by a film we watched this week. Can you guess what it was?
We went out for dinner last night with Hannah and Thom (as we are lazy writers, any suggestions for what we could shorten their name to?) and found that our new drinking limit is 2 North American pints. Feeling a little worse for wear today, we needed to relax. Luckily we have a hot tub…

Remember these two things Ollie
1) it is not about the triamph it is about the struggle… to keep rosie entertained for the the winter.
2) Ask Hugh Jackman for help if you are struggling.
(Rosie is not doing a very good impression of me)

I think that Hannom is a good choice because of the amount they feed you.
I think you mentioned the hot tub… but was really not ready for the full reality!! I am pretty jealous.
Ollie you look cool carrying your skiis… but will you look as cool whilst you hurtle down a mountain screaming?

Whilst trying to keep fit remember to stick to the four main food groups, candy, candy canes, candy corn and syrup. And remember……the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear….. While you are in the HOT TUB!!! (NOT at all jealous)

Haven’t got any of those things. Our main food groups are flour, lentils, chickpeas and dates (because that is what we bulk bought)

That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road. And when I got there, I thought maybe I’d run to the end of town. And when I got there, I thought maybe I’d just run across the national park .And I figured, since I run this far, maybe I’d just run across the great province of British Columbia. And that’s what I did. I ran clear across Canada. For no particular reason I just kept on going. I ran clear to the ocean. And when I got there, I figured, since I’d gone this far, I might as well turn around, just keep on going. When I got to another ocean, I figured, since I’d gone this far, I might as well just turn back, keep right on going, straight into the HOT TUB (NOT at all jealous!)
