This morning we had to wake Dola up bright and early yet again for another TV appearance. Seriously – if this keeps up, her head is going to get so big we’re going to have to get some additional oversize-permits. She was pretty stoked to arrive at the A Channel headquarters. The Breakfast Television hosts Kurt and Karen clearly thought they were coming back to Whistler with us – they walked out to meet her sporting goggles and ski-poles, and no sooner could you say ’20 cms of fresh!’ Karen had vaulted her way into the gondola.
After a pretty lengthy spot, it was time to head to the Parliament buildings so that Dola could continue building her portfolio. However, before we took off, DD (Daddy Dave, or Designate Driver – take your pick…there is also a third meaning, but it’s classified) discovered that we had picked up a nail in one of Dola’s trailers’ tires. We plugged into our trusty GPS (who we have fondly nicknamed ‘Tips’) to inquire where the nearest Canadian Tire was located, we headed off to find out it was no longer there. Oops… J So, bring on On Star incident No.2. This time we had someone at our hotel within 10 minutes. Amazing.
