Bob the Moose: Adventures at Apex!

Hello, readers and fans* of Darkie's Dailies. My name is Bob, and I am a moose. This past week I had the unfortunate fortune of following Darkie on her trip to Apex Ski Resort in Penticton, BC. Although my tiny, furry, moose-y old self did not spend much time outside of a 5m radius from my room at the inn, I enslaved Darkie to write this 432 word photo blog post to record my lovely adventure.
*Currently estimated at two readers.
Aren't I cute?

On the morning of the 29th I was shoved forcefully into Darkie's day pack and dragged the ten blocks to school. At around 8:30 the bus left and I was freed from the dark and damp prison of Darkie's backpack. So, naturally, I took pictures!
Darkie took this photo of me right before we left. I was so excited!

The bus didn't have a DVD player of any kind, so, in need of some amusement, Darkie and her friends decided to abuse the flexibility of my moose body.
This looks like a screen capture straight out of a snuff film. They're twisted my head around here; it's just sick.

After a while they got bored of me and I was zipped up again in Darkie's back pack. There I rested until 3:30 in the afternoon, when we finally arrived at Apex. Of course, Apex was covered in about a foot of snow, so Darkie kept me warm and dry by placing me on the shelf of room 106 in the Silverbullet Inn, right above the fireplace.
I was free to spend my day watching TV, listening to music, or strangling myself with Christmas lights. As I was right above the fireplace, my lovely furry butt was always warm and toasty. Occasionally I had Darkie move me to other places in the inn:
During my time spent in the fridge, I helped myself to a large helping of Nerds. Nothing makes a moose happier than a whole lot of Nerds. I wanted some jello, too, but I couldn't reach it.
And here is the bathroom.

Here is a photo of me of when I actually left the inn:
I wanted to try skiing, but alas, they didn't have moose-sized skis.

My time spent at Apex was so relaxing that I slept during the entire bus ride back to Vancouver, so I apologize for the lack of more photos. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed reading about my lovely adventure, and I would also like to thank Darkie for helping me to share this with all of you.
