Thanksgiving



Beautiful weekend getaway organized by Alex and his family. Matt Chris and I joined them for two days at Carriage Hills Resort. That's the same place where I went skiing with Angela Matt and Timo long time ago, back when we were students!

It was a weekend of hiking, biking, video games, good food, and most importantly good company!!

Matt was driving us Saturday morning, and the first line-up we encountered was not on the highway, but at Tim Hortons. We all tried the Timmy's Breakfast sandwiches, which I would give a 4 out of 5 considering how much I like buttery biscuits and scones.



After 1.5 hours of slow traffic, we arrived at the resort and met with Alex and his sister Alice. The 2BR unit looked so welcoming and warm because Alex and Alice set it up so well, food in the fridge, drinks... Alice fixed all of us lunch at the BBQ. Then Chris Matt and I went hiking on the two short trails.

We spent the evening playing NDS and PS2 - Mario + Winning Eleven.

The next morning after breakfast, we went to rent some bikes for some hill-biking. ;) The paths were very well maintained, so it's nothing like a rough mountainbike path, which turned out to be so much fun!

There were tons of outdoor activities, like Treetop Trekking. It's too bad we didn't get to do it. Definitely next time if we had a chance to go back. It's so nice to be able to just hang out with friends, without worrying about getting home late...!!

BIG thanks to Alex and his family for giving us a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner + weekend!
