Okay, here are the details for this Sunday's drive to Whistler.

9:30 am - Richmond, Lansdowne Mall, northeast parking lot (near Toys R Us)
10:00 am - Head north to West Vancouver
10:30 am - West Van, Park Royal White Spot parking lot (to gather with Vancouver, Coquitlam, and North Shore folks)
11:00 am - Sea To Sky Highway towards Whistler
12:30 pm - Lunch at Whistler Brew House (4355 Blackcomb Way, Tel: 604-905-2739)
2:30 pm - Head south back to Vancouver

The weather forecast for Sunday looks promising, so it should be a nice day for a drive. If anyone's interested, please let me know here or through email. I'll reserve the table(s) at the Brew House based on the response I get. So far, the following are confirmed:
