Another day, another city.

I woke up this morning in Vancouver and fell in love. This is the most amazing city to which I have ever travelled. I think I may eventually seriously consider making this home.

My morning started off wonderfully as I met Amanda downstairs in the lobby of my hotel. She was an incredible tour guide throughout the day. She had spent time googling places to eat and even where the menus in the diner were located! We hopped on a ferry to Granville Island and toured through the most amazing markets. She was so patient with my as I couldn't decide which pieces of jewelery I wanted. We bought fruit at the makets and ate fresh figs while talking about life lessons. A short boat trip and walk later we found ourselves in Stanley Park. Neither, Amanda nor I had ever been to the Vancouver Aquarium and we were bound and determined to see the whales. It must have been my lucky day, because not only did I see the whales, the fish, the monkeys and strange reptiles....I saw my first real raccoon!!!!

It was an incredible day with an amazing lady. I wonder what adventures tomorrow will bring!!

Life's little pleasures

Confession: I drove four hours today just so I could get a Caramel Apple Spice.

TOTALLY worth the drive.

It's a big ol' ocean out there...

Mick is almost in San Fransisco. Things are about to get real rocky in Boston.

The power of dreams

Confession: I can predict pregnancies through my dreams. :)

I kid. I kid! Well, kind of. The last three times that I dreamt someone was pregnant they were horrified when I told them about it. Each time, that person was pregnant within three months. I'm not really suggesting that I have the ability to impregnate people with my dreams. However, my sense of timing rocks.

Oh, I also have the dreaded virus that everyone is in such a bloody panic over. I'm on the same anti-nausea meds that they give chemo patients. 10 tablets = $100.10. God love medical insurance.

The meds make me loopy....is it obvious??
