Granville Island

It's funny how there's always seems to be more time to take photos of the places you visit for a few days than the places you live for a lot longer.

I couldn't possibly have kept count of the number of times I crossed the Granville Bridge when on the bus when I lived in Vancouver (it must have been a hundred or so times though). Today I crossed on foot and got a few good shots of Granville Island (with the south side of False Creek in the background). I'll be down there again on Wednesday for some improv and the fireworks.

Back in Vancouver

Arrived in Vancouver on Thursday (that was a couple of days ago if you really believe the timestamp on this post) and was swiftly whisked off by Sarah to her new place in Langley. Thanks Shaun and Sarah for being so accommodating again, I really appreciate it, and it's good to have the chance to see another unfamiliar bit of BC.

Thursday night we went to see Ocean's Thirteen, Friday we hung out with Val and Dennis. At least I think that's what happened. I'm getting so forgetful (you'd be forgiven for thinking I was writing this stuff a year later - ahem!).

Saturday (erm I mean today), Sarah and I went for breakfast with Hillary at the Rugby Beach Club Grille (Eggs Benedict, yummy!). While Sarah went to study, Hillary and I hit the Yaletown Street Party (where we enjoyed chili tasting), took in some juggling and hat manipulation in Robson Square (if anyone from Vancouver Juggling Club finds this and recognises the hat juggler, I'd be happy to give credit), and Hillary introduced me to bubble tea (which was not unpleasantly unusual).
