What's everyone doing for reading week?

Or, more selfishly, I need advice on a good vay kay. I was going to go skiing, but at a few days worth of lift tix and lodging, and I may as well be on a plane to somewhere warm and doing something awesome. (Travel bug) Anyone else been nursing the same itch?

 

I have a buddy doing med school in St. Kitts, but tickets there are horrendous. ($3000+)

 

If you say you will be catching up on homework, I will have pity on you, but not much since I feel sanity needs one to ignore masses of projects on occasion.

cabo san lucas is nice, and pretty cheap for all inclusives

Check out Jamaica and you may be able to find a good deal. They have some sweet (and sometimes not too costly) places to get away.

 

This being said, tropics over skiing? No way! I'd hit up a sweet hill (Whistler!) any day over the beach and palms setting.

I hear ya - this all started with a G&M advert for whistler ski packages. I was pretty excited, but with lift tix, a flight over, and lodging, I assume I'd be spending 1500 for a week. I'd pick a week of scuba diving away from canada for under 1K if I could. Looking into Jamaica and San Lucas now...

 

Perhaps I'll borrow buddy's VW bus and sleep at Kimberley.

 

Thanks for the advice all!

I think I'm driving down to Buffalo for a few days just because I've never been; going to see a hockey game and stuff. Sometimes the most relaxed and unplanned trips can be the most fun in my opinion. Montreal? That could be a quick train trip (depending on where you are lol) and pretty cheap if you stay in no-frills places.

 

I see you are in Edmonton... nvm haha

Work, catch up on the week of school work missed due to a flu, prepare for the 3 midterms immediately after reading week, and hopefully get in 2 days of snowboarding in there some where.

Wish I was flying to banff for a week of epic boarding with the snowboard club but dang, 1200 is steep.

I'll take a week in deep powder over warm weather any day
