a good start


I love being in totally new places. It does a world of good for me. I want to experience life from as many angles as I can, and traveling is one way to acheive that. Traveling is something I want to do a lot more of. But the getting there . . . ehhh, not so much.

But yesterday's journey to Vancouver was surprisingly easy. The taxi driver was right on time & got us to the airport early. The flight left on time. Our bags appeared on the conveyor belt not five minutes after we started watching for them. There was no wait at the rental car place, and we got our car right away, which by the way, is a royal blue PT Cruiser. We didn't ask for a car like that, but they gave us a "free upgrade", although we didn't exactly see it that way. We'd much rather be driving the unassuming, somewhat gas efficient Honda Civic that we saw in the lot. Anyway, we're here in our incredible apartment on the 13th floor in the middle of downtown Vancouver. We've already smoked our first Cuban cigars.




Today we plan on going for a run along the trail by the water, then going to this suspension bridge place. After that, it's time to hit the shops on Robson Street. Our wardrobes are so ready for an update! I have a feeling we'll have some great photos at the end of the day. Stay tuned. . .
