What a beautiful city! We walked in Stanley Park today and saw the aquarium. That was pretty cool I must say! Plus we were able to catch a dolphin show when we were there so pretty awesome I must say. Ok so I know you want to know what has happened since the last post so I will do it in point form....
* Departure from hotel was good, not too sad but it kind of hit me after we left.
* Final BBQ we had the night before we left was fun early on but way tooo many drunk people misbehaving for my liking.
* A little worried our ride to the airport wasn't going to show but eventually came (I hate those types of scares cause you have no control over them)
* Getting through baggage check and security at the airport was fine and the flight was good, even 20 minutes ahead of schedual but I still got the weird ear ache in my right ear when we are descending.
* Arrived at the hotel via the airporter in the late afternoon. Hotel lobby is small but nice, very friendly staff.
* Went up to our 'deluxe suite' that I booked and I have to say that it's technically not a suite and not as big as I thought it would be. The bedroom is only seperated by a small wall that only goes half way across the room, no door.
* After getting over intitial disappointment, Pas gave me some perspective and realized the room isn't that bad and neither is the view cause it really gives us a large scope of the city.
* Our Toilet overflowed in bathroom last night, back to disappointment but the staff handled it very well.
* Went for a walk around the downtown last night and boy was it warm out! Didn't even need my winter vest. Saw some beautiful sights!
* Had dinner at a cute little mom and pop restaurant called Casablanca's. It was mexican and it was goood!
* Today after Stanley park and Aquarium we ran into Stu and Carole as we were having a drink outside at a local bar and grill so they joined us for a drink and invited us to come out tomorrow night for Carole's birthday. Should be fun!
* Had dinner in the hotel dinning room tonight with Pas. Good food, nice waiter, service was slow. They forgot Pas' beer but was ok.
So far that's it! It's been pretty good so far. I purchased the Vancouver Entertainment Guide and we've been using a few of the coupons already and saving money. Look forward to tomorrow when we go to Chinatown!
Until tomorrow.... :)
Hali in 3 more days woooo hoooo!
Your pics rock, hun! SO glad you're having a good time :) Don't worry about the hotel room, 'tis just for sleeping in, hehe. Can't wait to see you this weekend! Have a great couple days on the loveliest coast! (Yeah, the east coast is beautiful, but doesn't have anything on the west ;). HUGS!
