Last weekend we stole away to Banff for our family’s annual weekend away (to celebrate the Dutch festival of Sinterklaas – not quite the exact date but we’re not purists on this one). While in Banff, we found out the World Cup women’s downhill race was going on at Lake Louise and took in the event. What a great time, especially watching U.S. skier Lindsay Vonn demolish the rest of the field, beating her nearest competitor by nearly two seconds (a lifetime in downhill skiing). Here’s a couple of photos of Vonn finishing the race.
