Executive Inn Express Airport Vancouver

... for sushi though because, well... I love sushi and I want to go for it every minute.
Tonight we're going over to Coquitlam, to Rob's Aunt Sandy's for dinner. Sandy and Stephen are tons of fun so I'm really
looking forward to going there! Plus they have friends visiting from Barbados.. and well.. there will be rum. Which after
the other night I thought should never be in my presence, but I was wrong.
**** the sun.. Dark and Stormy here I come!

... not when I'm that tired! So I can't really summarise any main points, but it was still great.

Then at the weekend, we decided to celebrate our ability to eat food with an almighty Break Fast brunch in the morning- French toast, butter, bacon, maple syrup, icing sugar (on the first piece), strawberries, whipped cream, icing sugar, maple syrup and applesauce (for number two). Diabetics, stay away. After we'd eaten more than our stomachs could bear to hold, we ...

... and the lack of wireless internet. So I will be buying a coffee everytime I want to go on the internet now for the indefinite future... expect a severe lack of blog posts! Other than that though, it's great, good location, we have a back yard (so maybe see if we can cultivate any potplants over the winter there), and I'm just exploring the area today. We have our registration and first meeting this afternoon so I'll keep you updated as and when I can. Thanks for reading!

... to 10 players by the end! Was still good fun though, and although we lost the final game 5-1, the opposition needed to win by 5 goals in order to progess. I scored our consolation in the last minute to shatter their dreams! Just call me Patrick Kluivert. Actually, didnt he run those people over? Hmmm, maybe not.

Not been up to too much more in Vancouver recently, but it was a bank holiday weekend just gone, so we headed down to Seattle to see ...

... off by the mannequins in the window. They all have massive breasts and look like porn stars. It’s kind of funny I suppose, but makes the shop seem tacky as.

I have already bought some souvenirs though, a necklace and a top, two more things I love to spend money on- jewellery and clothes J

The street my hostel is on has road works all down the middle of it at the moment. This is annoying to have to walk past because it’s so loud but on the flip side has ...

... They get the surface details....but then the substance is missing. The best experiences we had in lodging or food or service was when it was authentically Indian...without trying to satisfy some imaginary notion of what a westerner wants.  We made the final leg of the road trip from Pushkar to Delhi on Jan 7. By this point, Santos had figured out a way to NOT get lost (yahoo!!)....he'd hire a tuk-tuk driver upon entering any new city, and then attempt to follow ...

... they have in captivity behind electric fences. They have 5 acres to roam in and both bears are male and were orphaned as cubs, the Canadian government wouldn't allow their release back into the wild so they are permanent residents of Grouse Mountain. In Winter they ski on Grouse Mountain and we thoroughly enjoyed this day but it was hot, but seeing the Grizzlys' was just so wonderful. This pretty well completed this day.

... and varied shades of green. So many broad leafed plants and the earth was so wet. It even smells like Canada. I strolled down the road to a coffee shop called "Bean Around the World" and ordered my organic fair trade coffee and giggled to myself in the corner. Next day, I headed out to Granville Island by foot and was amazed at how many tall shiny buildings were across the water. This was the old Expo area and it ...

The weather hasn't been fantastic overall, so last weekend we opted for some indoor entertainment. We went to Vancouver Aquarum located in the very large and very green Stanley Park, a short walk from Downtown. On Sunday evening we went to the cinema to watch 10,000BC in one of the city's impressive movie theatres ...

... Weird, cos I don't think I dress that strangely, just kinda city-slickery I guess. Note to self, visit a Marks Work Wearhouse and get some flannel, and maybe a John Deere cap. People are strange birds. Speaking of which I saw a big Blue Heron just this morn on the rocks of the little river running behind the Old Mill Motel where I stay. Rm. 62, a 'suite' where I'm sure they could make 'Internet' films if they ...
