Whistler is a second home to many
North Shore residents who can be seen partaking in a number
of summer and winter activities.
Last weekend, it was time to welcome
winter as the ski hills opened and so did the wine bottles. "Vino
Novello", which is the brainchild of North Van's Elaine
Henderson, was started over 10 years ago as a fundraiser
for the Sunnyhill Foundation for Children. This year guests
gathered for fun and paid tribute to years past by celebrating
in true Italian style. Fantastico!
And earlier this month, even more
North Shore residents wend their way north for "Cornucopia
- Whistler's Food and Wine Celebration". The three day event
featured wine seminars, winemakers dinners, Crush - the gala
tasting and various parties like Andre Saint-Jacques'
famous champagne / wine rave at his beautiful Bearfood Bistro
location. Cheers to everyone.
