\"IMG_5274\"<\/a>They Came They Shucked They Conquered<\/strong><\/p>\n

Never wanting to be left out from any oyster event we can get to in a reasonable manner, we headed up to Whistler for the Annual World Oyster Invitational and Caesar Battle. Once settled in at the Westin Whistler Resort & Spa<\/a>\u00a0we enjoyed a chill\u00a0night at the hotel, dining at the tasty onsite Grill & Vine Restaurant before retiring for the evening.<\/p>\n

The next morning the weather was a bit of an issue; a bit of rain, sun, wind, etc, but the Bearfoot Bistro had prepared with some tents to shelter guests that afternoon.<\/p>\n

No one went hungry or thirsty as there were also at least a dozen wine and beer stations to sip from along with the Caesar stations including a make your own\u00a0bar where you could add pepperoni, bacon, peppers, tomatoes and a glassful of other stuff. I do think the alcohol part was tightly controlled though.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_5280\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The DJ was awesome and got the crowd dancing well into the evening but we had returned back to our comfy room where we later ordered a pizza and crashed early. Too much sun as they say.<\/p>\n
