Vancouver!!

As usual, so much fun. The one major difference was the pace...we did a ton of stuff, but things just didn't feel as manic or non-stop as usual. The pace was much more mellow this time.

I'm going to try for a quick run through, let's see how that goes:

I caught the early flight thursday morning with no problems. Vancouver Airport has a pretty fantastic walkthrough from the gate to customs, complete with indoor waterfall and river combination. Let's be honest, I want a river in my house. It'd be super awesome.
Customs meant the usual 20 questions, but they forgot to ask if I was heading to the coffeehouse. heh
I don't think that story will ever get old.

Mogivite and his brother picked me up and the 3 of us headed to a local casino. We wasted a bit of time and I burned $60 at a blackjack table.
We split ways and headed back to Mogivite's apartment where we were soon joined by his lovely redhead. *We're just going to call her that for now, I'll find a good nickname later*
Anyway, hugs galore and she was off to make appetizers for the family dinner we were headed to later.

Honestly...her litte nephew plodding around in adult sized fuzzy ducky slippers...funniest thing ever. Not one person who saw him that night kept a straight face. It was fantastic.
So was dinner by the way.
The appetizers were a hit, and the rest of the dinner was fantastic.
Ooooh!
I forgot lunch. After the casino but before we split up, Mogivite and his brother took me to The SandBar. The view was spectacular, as was the salmon burger.

Anyway, I remembered that only because dinner included grilled salmon. Along with roast chicken, vegetables, warm green bean salad, regular salad, the salmon, and fresh ears of corn.
Plus, all of the amazing people who were there to share it with. Very good times.

After dinner Mogivite and myself headed over to his brother's to spend the night. Mogivite was banned from the house computer, and there was Rockband.

Finally, at around 1 or 2am we hit the hay. I walked upstairs, figured out which doorway led to my bedroom and which one led to an awkward situation with the lady of the house...and hit the hay.
I avoided the awkward situation, in case you were wondering.

That was Day 1. We're going to do installments.
