Today is a day I've been looking forward to for eleven weeks. Heather, Renee, and Kaitlyn are coming to Vancouver. Yay!!!
Time to head to the airport. More to come soon.

Sweepless in Seattle
It's July 6th. Oh, and by the way, summer is finally here! My condo is actually, almost, kinda sweltering. Outside, the breeze keeps the downtown area comfortable, but there is still an intense desire to blow off homework and storm the beach.
Over the Canada Day weekend, I showed my patriotism by heading to Seattle. What?!
Well, the Blue Jays were playing there, and they needed my support. As it turned out, they got swept in spite of the throngs of Canadians who turned up at Safeco and made Seattle seem like a Canadian enclave for the weekend. The weather was spectacular and the city showed me its fun side, from the various sidewalk cafes and bistros on 1st Avenue to the 'Ride the Ducks' land and water tour. When I ascended the Space Needle on the last day, the wondrous Mount Ranier became visible. It appeared to be floating on clouds, a sight I will never forget.
The only negative was that I was travelling alone, so I couldn't share the pleasures of the Emerald City with family or friends. But, seeing that Seattle is a mere 3-4 hours away from Vancouver by car, it's quite possible I'll make my way down again.
