I love Whistler in the winter, and any excuse to head up for the weekend and to stay at Fairmont Chateau Whistler is a good one. My sister was in town and joined me for my latest trip, all about getting into the festive season, and giving back at the same time.
Fairmont Trees of Hope initiative brings together 10 local artists, all tasked with painting their interpretation of a ‘Tree of Hope’. Watching these artists work was mesmerizing, and it was so interesting to see how different interpretations can really be. The paintings are up for auction right now through to January 10th and Fairmont is running a special promo so that you an come to see the paintings for yourself. SO if you want to give back this year, please bid on one of the paintings! The proceeds go directly to Canuck Place Children’s Hospice.
I know these are yummy pictures of donuts, but I couldn’t resist – we loved the brunch buffet at the hotel! We also took a gondola ride up to Blackcomb Mountain, I’m telling you, I may try skiing again. I was good at it when I was like, 13, so I could try again… right? The view is SO gorgeous.
How are you getting into the seasonal spirit this Christmas?
