The following info is for anyone wanting to go to Whistler for the Olympics
For a long time the people running the winter Olympics made it seem that it would be difficult to go to the winter Olympics. That doesn't seem to be true. We have been planning on going for some time. Now more people want to join us. Here is what we found out this week:
Getting rooms via Vacation Rentals - Mountain Vacation Rental Search Engine was easy and cheap (~$300/nt)
Getting tickets was easy (not cheap)
Getting thru the border is the fastest in 10 years.
Getting a pass so you can drive to Whistler between 6 am & 6 pm was a pain but now super easy ( they are selling a day parking place and pass for $20)
So if you are able to travel last minute and want to see the Olympics in Whistler GO!!
