Rainy Vancouver
... we were here. As we would be coming back to Vancouver later in the month, perhaps the sun would bless us with its appearance before we had to head back to Ontario.
We headed off to Richmond as we left the ferry to meet up with Aunt Anne and Uncle Hank (Jeff's aunt and uncle from Ontario). They were in town for a wedding so it was great to meet up with them and catch up. We decided to ...
LC / BC

There is always so much to see and do in Vancouver. I think we have picked a pretty good city to live in for the next few ...
So whose idea was inline rollerblading?
... going to jump the kerb (well I really didn't have much option). I felt that I executed the jump quite well really (on this occasion I didn't bother with the triple salko - that would just have been showing off). However, then I saw ahead of me, the wall of a cafe approaching fast (or maybe I was doing the approaching). It was at this point I developed my signature move - I call it the forward roll bailout. Basically you look for some grass, head for it, and as ...
