Bellingham's DeCann House Bed and Breakfast

That is my first job in Vancouver and I am still emloyed to the end of October and then I will be layed off, because there are not that many people who want to rent a motorhome in the middle of the wintertime;-)
Soooooo, Kohle is looking for a new job=)

... in general--Regent Seven Seas Mariner of the Seas. It sounded like they were having a wonderful time.

While I was stopped along the trail I spotted several deer just a few yards away, almost totally hidden by the forest of trees. As I continued along it was so fun to look through the branches which seemed to form a natural picture frame around the boats bobbing in the sound.

When I reached downtown I wandered ...

... final episodes of Season 1 of The Office in the lounge. He hadn't seen them yet and I told him he has to catch up on them all before the new season starts. They were the episodes where Michael challenges the warehouse to a basketball game and the one where Amy Adams sells purses. Both quality episodes. After our break watching tv, we caught a bus to Fairhaven and went to dinner. Tucker took me to the Colophon Cafe where they have delicious milkshakes and huge ...

... by then and my appreciation from the culture and history I hope to become well-read.(I finished a book on Japan's most famous female literary writer, Murasaki Shikibu) So, until then I must focus on my studies, continue eating rice and ume, and somehow save money. My roommates Jill and Michelle are great fun, and I see my other girlfriends from last year in the dorms every weekend. (there have been so many ...

... little disappointed that they did not come closer for me to try out my new camera on them. Anyway, counts correct and all, I can only allow myself to believe that these 4 orca are my 4 that I adopted and have been supporting since 2002. So we continue on down the Strait and we go to supper in the main dining room and while we are eating the winds shift and the white caps start whipping around and everything next thing is an over ...

The bottom proved to be a very big job. We tried to get away with minimal sanding, but the more I got into it the more I felt we needed to do. I ground out the blisters and filled them with fairing filler and epoxy, and after months of after work sanding hired a kid with more time to finish the job. Dad had come over from Eastern ...

... date. Bet you are impressed, right? Have absolutely thousands of pictures to put on here...but as yet haven't found anywhere to upload them...not that we have really looked if we are honest and there are thousands of internet cafes here....still we will put them on soon, we promise. Maybe!!!!!!!!!! Oh yeah and i hope you all appreciate all our time and money doing this! It has cost us about $25 to get up to date and that is a lot of money to us poor travellers!!!! Till later....

... compartments of a little two hour haul internal(ish) flight plane! Morons. Anyway, after pushing a few bags about (and from what I heard, probably breaking a few things in the process), we got everything onboard. It is a very short flight indeed, compared to the continent crossing things I've been doing lately and it seemed so soon that I was being whisked through customs (hurrah for chairs) and into a taxi to our next hotel. The Fairmont Waterfront is right on the water - shock ...

... coffee shop/marketplace, no bigger than their living and dining room started us out with a strong bit of joe. We moved into Chinatown, which is said to rival that of San Francisco (where we'll be heading later on the trip). Chinatown we visited yesterday (or the day before?) and had some of the best Chinese food at Hon's; it brought back so many flavors and scents of a time long ago, when China was very real and present. Good food ...

... of the price and because we bought four, I negotiated an even better deal. We found a funky little store selling all things trippy from glow-in-the-dark everything to holograms. Of course I tried to talk Max out of the lava lamp explaining that it would never make it back to Argentina in one piece. But it was such a good deal that we couldn't pass it up and well, isn't it mandatory that everyone owns a lava lamp at least ONCE in their life? Next we made our way to the IMAX at ...
