Vancouver

I can't believe it's been 19 days since my last blog! V seems to be the favourite letter for my titles, so I'll stick with it and tell you about my most recent Vancouver adventures :)

A few weeks ago I bought a single ticket to see Sylvia Browne at the Orpheum Theatre. That place is seriously beautiful - a great venue for any event. Back to the start of my trip!

I went to Vancouver Wednesday and Geoff picked me up from the boat. We had an awesome night together! It was seriously overdue. We went out for dinner, watched the first Canucks game of the series on his wicked tv in HD... went to DQ, chatted in the hot tub. It was awesome, thanks Geoff!

Thursday I went downtown Vancouver to see Sylvia. It was a really fun show.. I heard everything I wanted to hear, lots of intriguing things to think about for sure! Afterwards, I had my first experience with Crepes! Dark chocolate and Banana with whip cream... fantastic. Apparently in Europe, Crepes are as popular as hot dog stands are in the US lol. I'm excited!

Friday was spent making potential travel plans while in Europe... then caught public transit out to Marcus'. Clay and Sara were there, we watched the tail end of the nucks 2nd game (which they won). We had a few strong drinks, a couple shots, and then got a ride to Woody's. It was my first time at Woody's, but it was pretty good. All I can say about Friday night, other than the incredibly fun time it was, and how awesome it was to see SCOTLAND... is that men are so predictable. Although I did meet a very unselfish caring guy who had to drive me all over the place, long story. Haha. Marcus and I ended up at the casino, left at 5 am and called it a night.

Saturday: Food, sleep... watch hockey, food...sleep. Skip party where I was supposed to see all of my friends. That's about the extent of it. Although I will say that I'm glad I skipped out on Saturday, only because the swelling in my neck that I've had for over a month has FINALLY DISAPPEARED. It was a wonderful day Sunday finally feeling human again. These sicknesses have had a hold on me since January... 4 months is way too long to be sick!

Sunday I went to Nanaimo, Oulton picked me up. We watched the hockey game together and then I drove home. I saw the little bunnies tonight, they are just little bundles of love :) This week involves sorting through years of junk, getting back to my workout routine... Then going back to Victoria for 4 days of a hockey tournament! Yayyyyy! It will be my last time on skates for 5 months. That makes me sad but I still can't wait!

I hope everyone is having a good April, I'll be back in less than 20 days this time ;)
